Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 5216
Gene name Profilin 1
Gene symbol PFN1
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
ALS18
Chromosome 17
Chromosome location 17p13.2
Summary This gene encodes a member of the profilin family of small actin-binding proteins. The encoded protein plays an important role in actin dynamics by regulating actin polymerization in response to extracellular signals. Deletion of this gene is associated w

Protein name Profilin-1 (Epididymis tissue protein Li 184a) (Profilin I)
Protein function Binds to actin and affects the structure of the cytoskeleton. At high concentrations, profilin prevents the polymerization of actin, whereas it enhances it at low concentrations. By binding to PIP2, it inhibits the formation of IP3 and DG. Inhib
