PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • two calponin homology (CH) domains
  • a single alpha-actinin-like-actin-binding domain
  • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to murine Parva
    homolog to Drosophila CG12533
    homolog to C.elegans pat-6
    intraspecies paralog to PARVB
    paralog to PARVG
    Homologene

    basic FUNCTION
  • playing probably a role in the regulation of cell adhesion and cytoskeleton organisation
  • actin-binding protein associated with focal contacts
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
    a component
  • constituent of focal adhesions
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • binding to actin and paxillin LD1 and LD4 motifs
  • with TESK1 (likely regulated by phosphorylation of PARVA, regulates TESK1 activity and subsequent cellular spreading on fibronectin)
  • interacting with ILK (mechanically couples integrin and PARVA for mediating cell adhesion)(Fukuda 2009))
  • cell & other
