Description

FBLIM1 (Filamin Binding LIM Protein 1), also known as migfilin, encodes a protein that localizes to cell-matrix adhesions and links the integrin-associated protein migfilin to the actin cytoskeleton via filamin binding. It plays a critical role in cell shape modulation, migration, and adhesion signaling. FBLIM1 is involved in bone development and has been implicated in cancer progression and metastasis.

Protein Summary

The FBLIM1 protein (migfilin) is a 373-amino acid LIM domain-containing protein that interacts with filamin and migfilin-binding protein. It localizes to focal adhesions and regulates cell-matrix adhesion dynamics. Through its LIM domains, it mediates protein-protein interactions essential for cytoskeletal remodeling and cell motility.
