ncbi summary :
This gene is induced by cytokines and interferon. Its protein product is thought to be involved in negative regulation of growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, which contributes to the anti-inflammatory response to vessel wall trauma. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]
uniprot summary :
AIF1: Actin-binding protein that enhances membrane ruffling and RAC activation. Enhances the actin-bundling activity of LCP1. Binds calcium. Plays a role in RAC signaling and in phagocytosis. May play a role in macrophage activation and function. Promotes the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and of T- lymphocytes. Enhances lymphocyte migration. Plays a role in vascular inflammation. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Cytoskeletal. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6p21.3. Cellular Component: perinuclear region of cytoplasm; lamellipodium; cytoplasm; actin filament; perikaryon; nucleus; cytosol; phagocytic cup. Molecular Function: actin filament binding; calcium ion binding. Biological Process: actin filament bundle formation; positive regulation of nitric oxide biosynthetic process; negative regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation; positive regulation of smooth muscle cell proliferation; microglial cell activation; Rac protein signal transduction; cellular response to hormone stimulus; actin filament polymerization; positive regulation of muscle hyperplasia; cellular response to extracellular stimulus; positive regulation of T cell proliferation; response to axon injury; positive regulation of protein amino acid phosphorylation; phagocytosis, engulfment; response to electrical stimulus; inflammatory response; negative regulation of apoptosis
