RUFY3

This gene encodes a RPIP8, UNC-14, and NESCA domain-containing protein that is required for maintenance of neuronal polarity. In addition, it has been implicated in mediation of gastric cancer cell migration and invasion via interaction with P21-activated kinase-1, which promotes its expression. The encoded protein localizes to F-actin-enriched invadopodia to induce formation of protrusions, thereby facilitating cell migration. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
