Cross linking protein has two or moreActinThe binding site can make two or more actin fibers cross link, so that the actin fibers in cells form a network structure.
Chinese name
cross-linker
Foreign name
cross linking protein
Some cross-linked proteins are rod-shaped and can bend. Because the network structure formed by this cross-linked protein has considerable elasticity, it can resist mechanical pressure.Some cross-linked proteins are spherical and can promoteActinBundled arrangement, such as actin bundles in microvilli, is cross-linked by this protein. Therefore, the main function of cross-linked protein is to change the three-dimensional structure of actin fibers in cells.
