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. Inhibits androgen receptor (AR) and HTT aggregation and binding of G-actin is essential for its inhibition of AR (By similarity). |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton. |

Background
Profilin is a protein which maintains and shapes cytoskeleton by binding to actin. Profilin 1 has function in breast cancer cell motility, radial migration and glial cell adhesion.
