CORO1B

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Coronin, actin binding protein, 1B also known as CORO1B is a protein which in humans is encoded by the CORO1B gene.[1] Members of the coronin family, such as CORO1B, are WD repeat-containing actin-binding proteins that regulate cell motility.[2]

Function

A mammalian coronin enriches at the leading edge of migrating cells.[3] Studies related to this protein are as follows:

  • Coronin 1B antagonizes cortactin and remodels Arp2/3-containing actin branches in lamellipodia.[4]
  • F-actin binding is essential for coronin 1B function in vivo.[5]
  • Coronin 1B coordinates Arp2/3 complex and cofilin activities at the leading edge.[6]
  • Phosphorylation of coronin 1B by protein kinase C regulates interaction with Arp2/3 and cell motility.[2]
  • In vivo and in vitro characterization of novel neuronal plasticity factors identified following spinal cord injury.[7]
  • Isolation, cloning, and characterization of a new mammalian coronin family member, coroninse, which is regulated within the protein kinase C signaling pathway.[8]
