Target Information

Gene Name
GSN
Gene ID
UniProt No.
Gene 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.
Sequence Similarities
Belongs to the villin/gelsolin family.Contains 6 gelsolin-like repeats.
Post-translational Modifications
Phosphorylation on Tyr-86, Tyr-409, Tyr-465, Tyr-603 and Tyr-651 in vitro is induced in presence of phospholipids.
