Function

Ena/VASP proteins are actin-associated proteins involved in a range of processes dependent on cytoskeleton remodeling and cell polarity such as axon guidance and lamellipodial and filopodial dynamics in migrating cells. EVL enhances actin nucleation and polymerization.

Subcellular Localization

Cytoplasm, cytoskeleton {ECO:0000250}. Cell projection, lamellipodium {ECO:0000250}. Note=Targeted to the leading edge of lamellipodia and the dital tip of stress fibers through interaction with a number of proteins. In activated T- cells, localizes to the F-actin collar and the distal tip of microspikes (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
