    basic FUNCTION
  • plays a key role in limb morphogenesis
  • intracellular actin nucleator implicated in limb development (Zhou 2009)
  • may be playing a role in repression of BMP signaling (Zhou 2009)
  • affects limb development in two ways, first, it harbors a control element that regulates the transcription of the GREM1 and second, because it codes for the cytoplasmic protein FMN1, which plays a role in the repression of BMP signaling (Zhou 2009)
  • with DIAPH3 can help F-actin form highly elastic networks and mediate the formation of highly elastic F-actin networks as effectively and rapidly as alpha-actinin and filamin
  • involvement of FMN1 in dendritogenesis and synaptogenesis,indicating that this protein is a key component of the NGN3 signaling pathway that controls neuronal differentiation
  • is an actin-nucleating protein, implicated in actin assembly and intracellular signaling
  • RHOA works in concert with FMN1 to control assembly of the specialized apical actin network in multiciliated epithelial cells (MCCs)

    protein
  • interacting with Profilin, SRC, EMS1, FNBP1, FNBP2, FNBP3, FNBP4, WBP4 and alpha-catenin
  • FLNB and FMN1 physically interact, are co-expressed in chondrocytes in the growth plate and share overlapping expression in the cell cytoplasm and nucleus
  • FLNB and FMN1 regulate chondrocyte proliferation, and FLNB may regulate FMN1 function at the hypertrophic-to-ossification border, thereby explaining the overall delay in ossification
