Background
This gene encodes a bipartite protein with distinct amino- and carboxy-terminal domains. The amino-terminus contains nuclear localization signals and the carboxy-terminus contains numerous consecutive sequences with extensive similarity to proteins in the gelsolin family of actin-binding proteins, which cap, nucleate, and/or sever actin filaments. The gene product is tightly associated with both actin filaments and plasma membranes, suggesting a role as a high-affinity link between the actin cytoskeleton and the membrane. The encoded protein appears to aid in both myosin II assembly during cell spreading and disassembly of focal adhesions. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms of supervillin have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2016],
Function
function:Forms a high-affinity link between the actin cytoskeleton and the membrane. Isoform 2 (archvillin) is among the first costameric proteins to assemble during myogenesis and it contributes to myogenic membrane structure and differentiation.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Belongs to the villin/gelsolin family.,similarity:Contains 1 HP (headpiece) domain.,similarity:Contains 5 gelsolin-like repeats.,subcellular location:Tightly associated with both actin filaments and plasma membranes.,subunit:Binds to F-actin.,tissue specificity:Expressed in many tissues. Most abundant in muscle, bone marrow, thyroid gland and salivary gland. Isoform 2 (archvillin) is muscle specific.,
