Background
This gene encodes a member of the parvin family of actin-binding proteins. Parvins are associated with focal contacts and contain calponin homology domains that bind to actin filaments. The encoded protein is part of the integrin-linked kinase signaling complex and plays a role in cell adhesion, motility and survival. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010],
Function
function:Probably plays a role in the regulation of cell adhesion and cytoskeleton organization.,similarity:Belongs to the parvin family.,similarity:Contains 2 CH (calponin-homology) domains.,subcellular location:Constituent of focal adhesions.,subunit:Interacts with TGFB1I1 (By similarity). Interacts with integrin-linked protein kinase and probably with actin and the LD1 and LD4 motifs of PXN. Interacts with CDGAP.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed, with highest levels in heart, skeletal muscle, kidney and liver.,
