UniPort Summary Function: Actin-binding protein involved in motile and morphological processes. Inhibits actin polymerization, likely by sequestering G-actin. By capping the barbed ends of filaments, it also regulates motility. Seems to play an important role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and distribution of endocytic organelles (By similarity).
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes twinfilin, an actin monomer-binding protein conserved from yeast to mammals. Studies of the mouse counterpart suggest that this protein may be an actin monomer-binding protein, and its localization to cortical G-actin-rich structures may be regulated by the small GTPase RAC1.

Uniprot Description
A6: Actin-binding protein involved in motile and morphological processes. Inhibits actin polymerization, likely by sequestering G-actin. By capping the barbed ends of filaments, it also regulates motility. Seems to play an important role in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and distribution of endocytic organelles. Interacts with G-actin; ADP-actin form and capping protein (CP). May also be able to interact with TWF2 and phosphoinositides, PI(4,5)P2. When bound to PI(4,5)P2, it is down- regulated. Expressed at high levels in the colon, testis, ovary, prostate and lung. Expressed at lower levels in the brain, bladder and heart. Not detected in liver. Belongs to the actin-binding proteins ADF family. Twinfilin subfamily. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q12
Cellular Component: actin cytoskeleton; cell-cell adherens junction; cytoplasm; filopodium; focal adhesion; intercellular junction; myofibril; perinuclear region of cytoplasm
Molecular Function: actin monomer binding; ATP binding; phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate binding; protein-tyrosine kinase activity
Biological Process: negative regulation of actin filament polymerization; regulation of actin phosphorylation; sequestering of actin monomers

Product Notes
The TWF1 twf1 (Catalog #AAA476344) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-Twinfilin-1 Mouse mAb reacts with Human, Mouse, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Twinfilin-1 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the TWF1 twf1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Twinfilin-1, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
