Synonyms | G1, IBA1 |
Function | Actin-binding protein that enhances membrane ruffling and RAC activation. Enhances the actin-bundling activity of LCP1. Binds calcium. Plays a role in RAC signaling and in phagocytosis. May play a role in macrophage activation and function. Promotes the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells and of T-lymphocytes. Enhances lymphocyte migration. Plays a role in vascular inflammation. |
Cellular Location | Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O70200}. Cell projection, ruffle membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O70200}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O70200}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O70200}. Cell projection, phagocytic cup {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O70200}. Note=Associated with the actin cytoskeleton at membrane ruffles and at sites of phagocytosis {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:O70200} |
Tissue Location | Detected in T-lymphocytes and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. |

Background
AIF1 is thought to be involved in negative regulation of growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, which contributes to the anti-inflammatory response to vessel wall trauma.
