CFL1

(Cofilin)

 

  • Alias                                 (According to NCBI)

 

  • Cofilin-1
  • p18
  • 18 kDa phosphoprotein
  • Cofilin, non-muscle isoform
  • Controls reversibly actin polymerization and depolymerization in a pH-sensitive manner. It has the ability to bind G- and F-actin in a 1:1 ratio of cofilin to actin. It is the major component of intranuclear and cytoplasmic actin rods.
