Cdc42 (Cdc42) encodes a GTPase signaling protein that acts as a molecular switch and functions as key regulator of the actin cytoskeleton. It plays a central role in diverse biological processes including actin cytoskeleton organization, mophogenesis, hemocyte migration, cell polarity, and wound repair.

Ras-like GTP-binding protein Rho1; Has a role in regulating actin cytoskeletal organization: required during early development for proper execution of morphogenetic movements of individual cells and groups of cells important for the formation of the embryonic body plan. Plays a role in regulating dorsal closure during embryogenesis. During axis elongation, required for Rho-kinase Rok planar polarity and adherens junction localization as well as for generating a planar polarized distribution of the actin-binding protein Shrm. During embryogenesis, acts upstream of wash to regulate the d [...]

Cofilin/actin-depolymerizing factor homolog; Exhibits F-actin depolymerizing activity and regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics. Required for cytokinesis in both mitotic and meiotic cells and for aster migration and separation. Promotes cell motility during ovary development and oogenesis. During larval development, required for the cell rearrangement needed for formation of terminal filaments which are stacks of somatic cells that are important for the initiation of ovarioles. Also required for border cell migration during oogenesis. During border cell migration, required for actin tu [...]

IP04855p; Actin filament binding. It is involved in the biological process described with: actin filament depolymerization; cell motility; actin filament severing; Belongs to the actin-binding proteins ADF family.

Rho-related BTB domain containing (RhoBTB) encodes a protein involved in anti-parasitoid immune response.

WASp, isoform A; WASp (WASp) encodes the homolog of the conserved Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome family of nucleation promoting factors. It enables the Arp2/3 complex to nucleate polymerization of branched microfilament arrays. It contributes to gastrulation, myoblast fusion, synapse morphology at neuromuscular junctions, sensory organ development, and spermatogenesis.

Mig-2-like (Mtl) encodes a Rho GTPase involved in actin organization regulation. It contributes to multiple actin-mediated processes including dorsal closure, wound healing, cell migration, germ band shortening and salivary gland morphogenesis.

Anillin; Required for cytokinesis. Essential for the structural integrity of the cleavage furrow and for completion of cleavage furrow ingression and proper formation of the midbody. Required during cellularization of syncytial embryos for the proper formation and function of the furrow canals, the stable inward folds of the plasma membrane which separate the peripheral nuclei. Also required for the formation of the pole cells, the progenitors of the adult germline which are formed by cytokinesis of the cytoplasmic buds at the posterior pole of the syncytial embryo. Essential for embry [...]

Protein spire; Acts as an actin nucleation factor, remains associated with the slow-growing pointed end of the new filament. Promotes dissociation of capu from the barbed end of actin filaments. Involved in intracellular vesicle transport along actin fibers, providing a novel link between actin cytoskeleton dynamics and intracellular transport. Required for localization of determinants within the developing oocyte to the posterior pole and to the dorsal anterior corner. Links Rho family signaling and Jnk function to the actin cytoskeleton.
