TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a group I formin. Localized to cell junctions. Polymerizes actin. Binds profilin. Member of family of cytoskeletal-interacting proteins which have the ability to stimulate actin nucleation and barbed-end capping through the combined activity of conserved formin-homology 1 (FH1) and formin-homology 2 (FH2) domains. FORMIN4 is a spatial feedback element in a multi-layered, temporally defined sequence of cytoskeletal response, contributing to the distribution of actin filaments at the dynamic cell wall appositions boundary and to the outcomes of pre-invasion defense. |
