Abstract excerpt
Lamellipodin (Lpd) protein plays an important role in the formation of lamellipodial protrusion which is crucial in actin dynamics, cell polarity and motility. Lpd promotes actin polymerization with the help of members of the Ena/VASP family of actin regulators and tethering them to actin filaments. It is well documented that Lpd protein interacts with the membrane containing phosphatidylinositols through its...
