Gene Information
human ... VASP(7408)
General description
VASP gene is located on human chromosome 19q13.2.
Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) is an adhesion protein. It belongs to the conserved family of actin regulatory proteins made up of an EVH1 domain, an EVH2 domain and a proline-rich central region.
Immunogen

Biochem/physiol Actions
Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) associates with the barbed ends of actin filaments and takes part in the antagonize filament capping, by interacting with the capping protein (CapZ). It reduces the density of Arp2/3-dependent actin filament branches and bind profilin at sites of actin polymerization. The N-terminal EVH1 domain interacts with proteins associated with focal adhesion plaques. The central proline-rich region interacts with SH3 domains and profilins. The C-terminal EVH2 domain aids in the tetramerization of actin by interacting with polymerized actin fibres.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

Ena/VASP proteins are a conserved family of actin regulatory proteins made up of EVH1, EVH2 domains, and a proline-rich central region. They have been implicated in actin-based processes such as fibroblast migration, axon guidance, and T cell polarization and are

The Ena-VASP family of proteins act as molecular adaptors linking the cytoskeletal system to signal transduction pathways. Their N-terminal EVH1 domains use groups of exposed aromatic residues to specifically recognize 'FPPPP' motifs found in the mammalian zyxin and vinculin proteins

Adhesion and morphogenesis of many non-muscle cells are guided by contractile actomyosin bundles called ventral stress fibers. While it is well established that stress fibers are mechanosensitive structures, physical mechanisms by which they assemble, align, and mature have remained elusive.

Defects in the maintenance of intercellular junctions are associated with loss of epithelial barrier function and consequent pathological conditions, including invasive cancers. Epithelial integrity is dependent on actomyosin bundles at adherens junctions, but the origin of these junctional bundles is

Regulation of translation during human development is poorly understood, and its dysregulation is associated with Rett syndrome (RTT).
