Description
Twinfilin-2 is a 349 amino acid protein that localizes to the perinuclear region of the cytoplasm, as well as to the cytoskeleton, and contains two ADF-H domains. Expressed ubiquitously, Twinfilin-2 functions as an Actin-binding protein that is able to both bind and sequester G-Actin and cap the barbed ends of Actin filaments, thereby inhibiting Actin polymerization and playing a role in Actin-related motile and morphological processes. Twinfilin-2 is subject to post-translational phosphorylation by PKC zeta. The gene encoding Twinfilin-2 maps to human chromosome 3, which houses over 1,100 genes, including a chemokine receptor (CKR) gene cluster and a variety of human cancer-related gene loci
