CATEGORY

motor/contractile

SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION	intracellular
	intracellular,cytoplasm,cytoskeleton,microfilament

basic FUNCTION	playing a central role in association with the troponin complex, in the calcium dependent regulation of vertebrate striated
	having functions in regulating cell motility and in modulating the anti-angiogenic activity of cleaved high molecular weight kininogen (HKa)(Jin 2008)
	promotes the formation of filopodia by regulating the recruitment of actin-binding proteins to actin filaments
	its expression has an important role in temporal regulation of cell migration during wound healing
	plays crucial roles in maintaining cortical actin integrity and asymmetric cell division during oocyte maturation, and dynamic regulation of cortical actin by TPM3 is critical to ensure proper polar body protrusion

CELLULAR PROCESS

PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS

text	slow type I muscle fibers

PATHWAY

metabolism

signaling

a component

dimerizing to form a helical coiled coil constituent binding to actin in the troponin complex (thin filamant) that regulates calcium-dependent binding of actin and myosin and muscle contraction

INTERACTION

DNA

RNA

small molecule

protein	ACTA1 and TNNT1 and ultimatily regulating the development of muscle contraction
	TTC9 interacts specifically with actin-binding protein tropomyosin TPM3 which stabilizes actin filament and focal adhesion
