    basic FUNCTION
  • regulating lamellipodial dynamics and actin network
  • actin regulatory protein involved in the control of cell motility and adhesion, and modulated during human breast carcinogenesis
  • have a role beyond anticapping activity in filopodia formation

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • interaction of the EVH1 domain with FPPPP sequence motifs found in a variety of cytoskeletal proteins, including lamellipodin, vinculin, and zyxin
  • ZYX recruits Enabled/vasodilator-stimulated phospho-proteins (ENAH/VASP) to promote actin assembly
  • interaction with ABI1 (promotes the ABL-mediated phosphorylation of ENAH by binding both ABL and ENAH)
  • by mediating intensive F-actin accumulation at the sites of cell infiltration, WASF2, WASL, and ENAH are crucial for PI3K-dependent cell invasion induced by PDGFA
  • cell & other
