Filamin
Encyclopedia
Filamins are a class of proteins that hold two actin filaments at large angles.

Types include:
  • FLNA
    FLNA
    Filamin-A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FLNA gene.- Function :Actin-binding protein, or filamin, is a 280-kD protein that crosslinks actin filaments into orthogonal networks in cortical cytoplasm and participates in the anchoring of membrane proteins for the actin cytoskeleton....

  • FLNB
    FLNB
    Filamin B, beta , also known as FLNB, is a human cytoplasmic protein. It regulates intracellular communication and signalling by cross-linking the protein actin to allow direct communication between the cell membrane and cytoskeletal network, to control and guide proper skeletal...

  • FLNC
    FLNC (gene)
    Filamin-C also known as actin-binding-like protein or filamin-2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the FLNC gene.- Function :This gene encodes one of three related filamin genes, specifically gamma filamin...
