General Information (Source: NCBI Gene,UniProt)

Text mining Term profilin (protein family or complex)
UniProt ID PROF_HELAN
Name Profilin
Pollen allergen Hel a 2
Gene Names
Taxonomy Helianthus annuus

General annotation

Function Binds to actin and affects the structure of the cytoskeleton. At high concentrations, profilin prevents the polymerization of actin, whereas it enhances it at low concentrations. By binding to PIP2, it inhibits the formation of IP3 and DG (By similarity).
Subcellular location Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton (By similarity).
