Description: The primary site of action of cytochalasin B on cell motility processes is beta-actin. Habets et al. (1992) generated hybrids that harbor only specific regions of human chromosome 7 and assigned the ACTB locus to 7p15-p12. ACTB and the other assigned beta-actin-related sequences are dispersed over at least four different chromosomes including one locus assigned to the X chromosome. A mutation of beta-actin that alters depolymerization dynamics is associated with autosomal dominant developmental malformations, deafness, and dystonia.
