In humans, two ubiquitous plastin isoforms (L and T) have been identified. Plastin 1 (otherwise known as Fimbrin) is a third distinct plastin isoform which is specifically expressed at high levels in the small intestine. The L isoform is expressed only in hemopoietic cell lineages, while the T isoform has been found in all other normal cells of solid tissues that have replicative potential (fibroblasts, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, melanocytes, etc.). The C-terminal 570 amino acids of the T-plastin and L-plastin proteins are 83% identical. It contains a potential calcium-binding site near the N terminus. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2010]. * **UniProt Summary**: Actin-bundling protein found in intestinal microvilli, hair cell stereocilia, and fibroblast filopodia. May play a role in the regulation of bone development. |CH| |actin filament network formation| |actin filament bundle| |actin filament bundle assembly| |actin filament bundle organization| |actin filament| |bone development| |actin filament binding| |actin filament organization| |supramolecular fiber organization| |actin cytoskeleton organization| |skeletal system development| |actin filament-based process| |calcium ion binding| |cytoskeleton organization| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp80|RO-3307 4.7μM R02 exp80]]|-2.11| |[[:results:exp68|Clomiphene 4.4μM R02 exp68]]|1.73| |[[:results:exp100|NFN1 1μM R03 exp100]]|1.86| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
