General Information of Binding Target of SBP (BTS) (ID: ST00212)
BTS Name
Gelsolin
Synonyms
AGEL; Actin-depolymerizing factor; ADF; Brevin
BTS Type
Protein
Family
Villin/gelsolin family
Gene Name
GSN
Organism
Homo sapiens (Human)
Function
Calcium-regulated, actin-modulating protein that binds to the plus (or barbed) ends of actin monomers or filaments, preventing monomer exchange (end-blocking or capping). It can promote the assembly of monomers into filaments (nucleation) as well as sever filaments already formed. Plays a role in ciliogenesis.
