General annotation (Comments)

Function

Calcium-regulated, actin-modulating protein that binds to the plus (or barbed) ends of actin monomers or filaments, preventing monomer exchange (end-blocking or capping). It can promote the assembly of monomers into filaments (nucleation) as well as sever filaments already formed. Plays a role in ciliogenesis By similarity.

Subunit structure

Binds to actin and to fibronectin By similarity.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasmcytoskeleton.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the villin/gelsolin family.

Contains 6 gelsolin-like repeats.
