Structure of human Cofilin1

Function

[COF1_HUMAN] Binds to F-actin and exhibits pH-sensitive F-actin depolymerizing activity. Regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics. Important for normal progress through mitosis and normal cytokinesis. Plays a role in the regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization.[1] [2]

About this Structure

4bex is a 1 chain structure with sequence from Homo sapiens. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA.
