Cofilin 2 Antibody / CFL2

Cofilin is ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotic cells where it binds to Actin, thereby regulating the rapid cycling of Actin assembly and disassembly essential for cellular viability. Cofilin is a low molecular weight protein that binds to filamentous (F) Actin by bridging two longitudinally associated Actin subunits changing the F-Actin filament twist. This process is allowed by the dephosphorylation of Cofilin Ser-3 by factors such as opsonized zymosan. Lim kinase 1, a serine kinase, phosphorylates Cofilin and renders it unable to bind and depolymerise F-Actin.
