motifs/domains
  • nuclear factor binding motifs
  • a calponin-homology (CH) domain
  • conjugated Other
    HOMOLOGY
    interspecies ortholog to murine Tagln
    homolog to C.elegans F43G9.9
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • family of actin-binding proteins
  • calponin family
  • CATEGORY motor/contractile , regulatory , tumor suppressor
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm
    basic FUNCTION
  • acting as a transformation and shape-change sensitive actin cross-linking/gelling protein
  • involved in calcium interactions and contractile properties of the cell contributing to replicative senescence
  • functioning as a suppressor via inhibition of RNF14-enhanced androgen receptor transactivation
  • regulator of MMP9 expression (repressor of 92-kDa type IV collagenase (MMP-9) expression)
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS development

    small molecule metal binding,
  • Ca2+
  • protein
  • binding to actin
  • binds to actin (multiple regions within the COOH-terminal domain are required for full actin affinity)
  • RNF14-associated negative modulator for AR
