Biological function summary
Arp3 plays a significant role in cellular motility and morphology. It is a part of the Arp2/3 complex which consists of seven subunits that assemble to promote actin nucleation. This complex is central to the formation of branched actin networks which are necessary for processes such as cell movement endocytosis and vesicle trafficking. Through its mechanical action within the Arp2/3 complex Arp3 influences the dynamic rearrangement of the cytoskeleton necessary for cellular responses to external stimuli.
Pathways
Arp3 functions within the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) pathway and the Rho family of GTPases pathway. These pathways are important for regulating the actin cytoskeleton dynamics. The WASP pathway activates Arp2/3 complex triggering branched actin filament assembly. This process interacts with proteins like Cdc42 a member of the Rho GTPase family which further modulates cytoskeletal organization. Through these interactions Arp3 assists in coordinating actin-based processes critical to cell shape and movement.

General info
Function
ATP-binding component of the Arp2/3 complex, a multiprotein complex that mediates actin polymerization upon stimulation by nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) (PubMed : 9000076). The Arp2/3 complex mediates the formation of branched actin networks in the cytoplasm, providing the force for cell motility (PubMed : 9000076). Seems to contact the pointed end of the daughter actin filament (PubMed : 9000076). In podocytes, required for the formation of lamellipodia downstream of AVIL and PLCE1 regulation (PubMed : 29058690). In addition to its role in the cytoplasmic cytoskeleton, the Arp2/3 complex also promotes actin polymerization in the nucleus, thereby regulating gene transcription and repair of damaged DNA (PubMed : 17220302, PubMed : 29925947). The Arp2/3 complex promotes homologous recombination (HR) repair in response to DNA damage by promoting nuclear actin polymerization, leading to drive motility of double-strand breaks (DSBs) (PubMed : 29925947). Plays a role in ciliogenesis (PubMed : 20393563).
