Facts about Capping protein, Arp2/3 and myosin-I linker protein 2.
Plays a role in cell protrusion formations; involved in cell polarity, lamellipodial assembly, membrane ruffling and macropinosome formations (PubMed:19846667, PubMed:26578515, PubMed:26466680). Involved too in cell migration and invadopodia formation during wound healing (PubMed:19846667, PubMed:26578515, PubMed:26466680).

[Isoform 2]: Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Cytoplasmic side. Cell projection, lamellipodium. Cell projection, ruffle. Colocalizes to dynamic vimentin filaments both in the central cytoplasm and at leading edges of migrating cells (PubMed:26578515, PubMed:26466680, PubMed:19846667). Colocalizes with F-actin, Arp2/3 complex and cortactin to leading edge lamellipodia, ruffles and macropinosomes of migrating cells (PubMed:26578515).
