Vinculin Protein is a cytoskeletal protein associated with cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions, where it is thought to function as one of several interacting proteins involved in anchoring F-actin to the membrane. It regulates adhesion by directly binding to actin, stimulating actin polymerization and recruiting actin remodeling proteins. Vinculin regulates cell-surface E-cadherin expression and potentiates mechanosensing by the E-cadherin complex, may also play important roles in cell morphology and locomotion. Vinculin Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived Vinculin protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free. The total length of Vinculin Protein, Human is 1065 a.a., with molecular weight of ~115.0 kDa.

Human

Vinculin is a cytoskeletal protein associated with cell-cell and cell-matrix junctions, where it is thought to function as one of several interacting proteins involved in anchoring F-actin to the membrane. Vinculin has no enzymatic activity. It regulates adhesion by directly binding to actin, stimulating actin polymerization and recruiting actin remodeling proteins. In the absence of vinculin, cell-matrix and cell-cell adhesion are dramatically impaired, indicating vinculin plays a critical role in human physiology. Vinculin stabilizes focal adhesions and thereby suppresses cell migration, an effect that is relieved by transient changes in the local concentrations of inositol phospholipids. Vinculin provides a mechanical link, controls cell signalling processes, affects contractility and adhesion protein turnover. Vinculin is thought to function as a tumour suppressor by supporting anchorage-dependent cell growth and suppressing tumour metastasis by reducing cell motility. In addition, Vinculin regulates cell-surface E-cadherin expression and potentiates mechanosensing by the E-cadherin complex, may also play important roles in cell morphology and locomotion [1] [2] [3] [4] .
