Twinfilin (TWF1) is a ubiquitous actin-monomer-binding protein which is composed of two ADF-homology domains. Twinfilin forms a 1:1 complex with ADP-actin-monomers, prevents nucleotide exchange on actin monomers and blocks assembly of the monomer into filaments. TWF1 is composed of 2 ADF/cofilin-like (ADF-H) domains joined by a short linker region and followed by a C-terminal tail of approximately 20 residues. The 2 ADF-H domains are approximately 20% homologous to ADF/cofilin and to each other. TWF1 protein may be an actin monomer-binding protein, and its localization to cortical G-actin-rich structures might be regulated by the small GTPase RAC1.
TWF1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 277 amino acids (1-252 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 31.5kDa. TWF1 is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
| UniProt Protein Function: | A6: Actin-binding protein involved in motile and morphological processes. Inhibits actin polymerization, likely by sequestering G-actin. By capping the barbed ends of filaments, it also regulates motility. Seems to play an important role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and distribution of endocytic organelles. Interacts with G-actin; ADP-actin form and capping protein (CP). May also be able to interact with TWF2 and phosphoinositides, PI(4,5)P2. When bound to PI(4,5)P2, it is down- regulated. Expressed at high levels in the colon, testis, ovary, prostate and lung. Expressed at lower levels in the brain, bladder and heart. Not detected in liver. Belongs to the actin-binding proteins ADF family. Twinfilin subfamily. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. |
| UniProt Protein Details: | Protein type:Motility/polarity/chemotaxis Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q12 Cellular Component: actin cytoskeleton; cytoplasm; filopodium; focal adhesion; intercellular junction; myofibril; perinuclear region of cytoplasm Molecular Function:actin monomer binding; ATP binding; phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate binding; protein-tyrosine kinase activity Biological Process: negative regulation of actin filament polymerization; regulation of actin phosphorylation; sequestering of actin monomers |
| NCBI Summary: | This gene encodes twinfilin, an actin monomer-binding protein conserved from yeast to mammals. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggest that this protein may be an actin monomer-binding protein, and its localization to cortical G-actin-rich structures may be regulated by the small GTPase RAC1.
