'''Paxillin''' (PXN) is involved in actin membrane attachment at sites of cell adhesion to focal adhesion domains. PXN contains a number of domains which are involved in protein-protein interactions: LD, LIM, SH2 and SH3 binding sites. LD motifs are leucine-rich sequences which begin with leucine (L) and end with aspartate (D)<ref>PMID:11911889</ref>. PXN serves as a docking protein recruiting signaling molecules to focal adhesions.
