Actin filament (F-actin)-binding protein involved in cell-matrix adhesion and cell-cell adhesion. Regulates cell-surface E-cadherin expression and potentiates mechanosensing by the E-cadherin complex. May also play important roles in cell morphology and locomotion.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Rat Vinculin
Subcellular Location
Cytoplasm cytoskeleton Cell junction adherens junction Cell membrane Peripheral membrane protein Cytoplasmic side Cytoplasmic face of adhesion plaques. Recruitment to cell-cell junctions occurs in a myosin II-dependent manner. Interaction with CTNNB1 is necessary for its localization to the cell-cell junctions.
Exhibits self-association properties. Interacts with NRAP, SORBS1 and TLN1. Interacts with SYNM. Interacts with CTNNB1 and this interaction is necessary for its localization to the cell-cell junctions and for its function in regulating cell surface expression of E-cadherin.
