Background

AFAP (actin filament associated protein; also known as AFAP-110) is an adaptor protein that regulates actin filament integrity. It is both multimodular and multimeric, and is known to simultaneously bind actin and cytosolic kinases. As a homomultimer, AFAP binds and separates actin filaments, preventing actin cross-linking. Upon binding to kinases, AFAP is destabilized, promoting actin polymerization. Human AFAP is 730 amino acids (aa) in length, and contains SH3 and SH2 binding motifs (aa 69‑74 and aa 91‑96), two pleckstrin homology domains (aa 153‑248 and aa 347‑450) and a Leu-zipper/actin binding region (aa 511‑637). Over aa 450‑730, human AFAP is 86% identical to mouse and rat AFAP.
