Family Actin-binding proteins ADF family
Function
Controls reversibly actin polymerization and depolymerization in a pH-sensitive manner. Its F-actin depolymerization activity is regulated by association with CSPR3. It has the ability to bind G- and F-actin in a 1:1 ratio of cofilin to actin. It is the major component of intranuclear and cytoplasmic actin rods. Required for muscle maintenance. May play a role during the exchange of alpha-actin forms during the early postnatal remodeling of the sarcomere (By similarity).

In Vitro Model
ARPE-19 cells Normal Homo sapiens CVCL_0145
Response regulation Downregulation of circ-PSEN1 ameliorates HG-induced ferroptosis in ARPE19 cells via miR-200b-3p/ CFL2 and may be a novel therapeutic target for diabetic retinopathy. Enhancement of CFL2 suppressed the mRNA and protein expression of GPX4 and SLC7A11. However, TFR1 expression was promoted.
