[[Villin]] (VIL) is an actin-binding protein. The images | [[Villin]] (VIL) is an actin-binding protein. The images on the left and right correspond to one representative villin structure, ''i.e.'' the human supervillin headpiece ([[2k6n]]). It contains gelsolin-like domains in its N-terminal and a helical headpiece which binds actin. <ref>PMID:10480879</ref> Supervillin (SVIL) contains numerous gelsolin-like domains in its C-terminal and interacts with actin. Advillin (AVIL) is another actin-binding protein in the [[gelsolin]] superfamily which is expressed in the peripheral sensory neurons. | ||
