Protein Summary
Raftlin is a 547-amino acid protein that contains a cysteine-rich domain and a coiled-coil region. It binds to the cytoplasmic tail of integrins and links lipid rafts to the actin cytoskeleton, facilitating cell adhesion and migration. It is highly expressed in lymphoid tissues and is implicated in immune signaling and cancer progression.
