GSN binds to the 'plus' ends of actin monomers and filaments to prevent monomer exchange. It is a calcium-regulated protein, which functions in both assembly and disassembly of actin filaments. Defects in the gene encoding GSN are a cause of familial amyloidosis Finnish type (FAF).The protein encoded by this gene binds to the 'plus' ends of actin monomers and filaments to prevent monomer exchange. The encoded calcium-regulated protein functions in both assembly and disassembly of actin filaments. Defects in this gene are a cause of familial amyloidosis Finnish type (FAF). Multiple transcript variants encoding several different isoforms have been found for this gene.1) Shokouhi, G. Nephrol. Dial. Transplant. 23 (3), 1071 (2008).
