VASP Proteins and Enzymes

Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) is a member of the Ena-VASP protein family. VASP is associated with filamentous actin formation and likely plays a widespread role in cell adhesion and motility. VASP may also be involved in the intracellular signaling pathways that regulate integrin-extracellular matrix interactions. VASP is regulated by the cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinases PKA and PKG. VASP shares a limited degree of homology with the amino terminus of WASP, which is frequently ...
