Vill - villin-like

Predicted to enable actin filament binding activity and phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate binding activity. Predicted to be involved in actin filament severing; actin polymerization or depolymerization; and barbed-end actin filament capping. Predicted to act upstream of or within actin filament capping. Predicted to be active in actin cytoskeleton and cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; metanephros; nervous system; sensory organ; and skeleton. Orthologous to human VILL (villin like). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
