'''Profilin''' (PFN) enhances actin growth by binding to monomeric actin, thus becoming profilactin.  PFN catalyzes the exchange of poorly polymerizing ADP-actin to readily polymerizing ATP-actin.  PFN binds to poly-L-proline, thus it recruits the actin monomers to proline-rich proteins like VASP, which enhance the growing of actin polymers.  PFN-I is expressed in most tissues while PFN-II is expressed in brain and kidney.  PFN was found in all eukaryotes.
