Protein
Fascin
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
493 amino acids
Function
Actin-binding protein that contains 2 major actin binding sites (PubMed:21685497, PubMed:23184945). Organizes filamentous actin into parallel bundles (PubMed:20393565, PubMed:21685497, PubMed:23184945). Plays a role in the organization of actin filament bundles and the formation of microspikes, membrane ruffles, and stress fibers (PubMed:22155786). Important for the formation of a diverse set of cell protrusions, such as filopodia, and for cell motility and migration (PubMed:20393565, PubMed:21685497, PubMed:23184945). Mediates reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton and axon growth cone collapse in response to NGF (PubMed:22155786).
Similarity
Belongs to the fascin family.
