    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)
