What is Vasodilator Stimulated Phosphoprotein (VASP)?
Vasodilator Stimulated Phosphoprotein (VASP) is a crucial protein belonging to the Ena/VASP family. It plays a significant role in the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton, which is essential for various cellular processes such as cell motility, adhesion, and signaling. VASP is characterized by its ability to bind to actin filaments and influence their dynamics, facilitating critical cellular functions.
