    basic FUNCTION
  • playing a role in neuronal membrane cytoskeleton
  • tetrameric actin-cross-linking proteins that form an elastic network, termed the membrane skeleton, on the cytoplasmic surface of cellular membranes (Davis 2009)
  • critical role for SPTBN2 in Purkinje cell morphological development
  • regulates the structural integrity and the secretory protein transport of the Golgi complex
  • is required for normal neuronal morphology and cell survival
  • critical role for SPTBN2 in maintaining ANK1 throughout the Purkinje cell dendritic tree
  • is critical for integrating membrane and cytoskeletal domains in excitable and nonexcitable cells
