Abstract:
:Several different protein families were shown to be involved in the regulation of actin filament formation and have been studied extensively in processes such as cell migration. Among them are members of the formin family, which tend to promote the formation of linear actin filaments. Studies in recent years, often using loss of function animal models, have indicated that formin family members play roles beyond cell motility in vitro and are involved in processes ranging from tissue morphogenesis and cell differentiation to diseases such as cancer and cardiomyopathy. Therefore the aim of this review is to discuss these findings and to start putting them into a subcellular context.
