Vinculin Antibody

Vinculin is a cytoskeletal protein associated with the cytoplasmic face of both cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adherens-type junctions, where it is thought to function as one of several interacting proteins involved in anchoring F-actin to the membrane. Both human and chicken embryo sequences of vinculin contain 1,066 amino acids and the two proteins exhibit a high level of sequence identity (greater than 95%).
