Function |
Induces disassembly of actin filaments in conjunction with ADF/cofilin family proteins. Doesn't sever actin filaments alone, but caps the barbed ends of filaments severed by cofilin, which blocks annealing and depolymerization and allows more extensive severing by cofilin. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10212149, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12055192}.
