[[Severin]] is a calcium-activated protein which binds actin. 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<ref>PMID:15060630</ref>. It is named Adseverin and Scinderin as well. | [[Severin]] is a calcium-activated protein which binds actin. It nucleates actin assembly, severes F-actin and caps actin filaments.
