Fascin proteins organize F-actin into parallel bundles, and are required for the formation of actin-based cellular protrusions. The encoded protein plays a critical role in cell migration, motility, adhesion and cellular interactions. Expression of this gene is known to be regulated by several microRNAs, and overexpression of this gene may play a role in the metastasis of multiple types of cancer by increasing cell motility. Expression of this gene is also a marker for Reed-Sternberg cells in Hodgkin's lymphoma. A pseudogene of this gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 15. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]. * **UniProt Summary**: Organizes filamentous actin into bundles with a minimum of 4.1:1 actin/fascin ratio. Plays a role in the organization of actin filament bundles and the formation of microspikes, membrane ruffles, and stress fibers. Important for the formation of a diverse set of cell protrusions, such as filopodia, and for cell motility and migration. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:20137952, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20393565, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9362073, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9571235}. |Fascin| |microspike assembly| |microspike| |regulation of microvillus assembly| |parallel actin filament bundle assembly| |positive regulation of extracellular matrix disassembly| |invadopodium| |cell projection membrane| |positive regulation of podosome assembly| |regulation of microvillus organization| |regulation of podosome assembly| |regulation of extracellular matrix disassembly| |establishment of apical/basal cell polarity| |positive regulation of lamellipodium assembly| |positive regulation of extracellular matrix organization| |establishment of monopolar cell polarity| |establishment or maintenance of monopolar cell polarity| |positive regulation of lamellipodium organization| |podosome| |regulation of lamellipodium assembly| |positive regulation of filopodium assembly| |regulation of extracellular matrix organization| |regulation of lamellipodium organization| |regulation of filopodium assembly| |establishment or maintenance of apical/basal cell polarity| |establishment or maintenance of bipolar cell polarity| |drug binding| |actin filament bundle assembly| |microvillus| |actin filament bundle organization| |stress fiber| |filopodium| |positive regulation of organelle assembly| |protein binding, bridging| |ruffle| |positive regulation of plasma membrane bounded cell projection assembly| |cell-cell junction assembly| |establishment of cell polarity| |growth cone| |cell-cell junction organization| |cell junction assembly| |cell-cell junction| |lamellipodium| |establishment or maintenance of cell polarity| |regulation of plasma membrane bounded cell projection assembly| |regulation of cell projection assembly| |actin filament binding| |cell junction organization| |actin cytoskeleton| |regulation of organelle assembly| |actin filament organization| |positive regulation of protein complex assembly| |actin binding| |cadherin binding| |regulation of actin cytoskeleton organization| |cytoskeleton| |positive regulation of cell projection organization| |regulation of actin filament-based process| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection assembly| |regulation of protein complex assembly| |supramolecular fiber organization| |cell projection assembly| |actin cytoskeleton organization| |positive regulation of cellular component biogenesis| |regulation of cytoskeleton organization| |actin filament-based process| |positive regulation of organelle organization| |cytokine-mediated signaling pathway| |regulation of plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization| |regulation of cell projection organization| |regulation of cellular component biogenesis| |cell migration| |cellular response to cytokine stimulus| |localization of cell| |cell motility| |response to cytokine| |cytoskeleton organization| |plasma membrane bounded cell projection organization| |cell projection organization| |positive regulation of cellular component organization| |regulation of organelle organization| |locomotion| |RNA binding| |movement of cell or subcellular component| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp64|Nocodazole 0.2μM R02 exp64]]|1.75| |[[:results:exp208|Vinblastine 0.015μM R05 exp208]]|1.81| |[[:results:exp93|DABN racemic mixture R03 exp93]]|2.12| |[[:results:exp33|Rotenone 2μM R00 exp33]]|2.18| |[[:results:exp98|BI-6727 0.04μM R03 exp98]]|2.69| |[[:results:exp244|SB743921 0.001μM R05 exp244]]|2.86| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
