The images at the top and at the right correspond to one representative severin structure, ''i.e.'' the human severin ([[3fg6]]). It nucleates actin assembly, severes F-actin and caps actin filaments. Severin is a member of the calcium-regulated gelsolin superfamily of actin severing and capping proteins. It is named Adseverin and Scinderin as well. The image at the right is the severin with <scene name='Severin/Cv/5'>calcium ions</scene> (<font color='lime'><b>colored lime</b></font>). | ||
