function:Forms a high-affinity link between the actin cytoskeleton and the membrane. Isoform 2 (archvillin) is among the first costameric proteins to assemble during myogenesis and it contributes to myogenic membrane structure and differentiation.,PTM:Phosphorylated upon DNA damage, probably by ATM or ATR.,similarity:Belongs to the villin/gelsolin family.,similarity:Contains 1 HP (headpiece) domain.,similarity:Contains 5 gelsolin-like repeats.,subcellular location:Tightly associated with both actin filaments and plasma membranes.,subunit:Binds to F-actin.,tissue specificity:Expressed in many tissues. Most abundant in muscle, bone marrow, thyroid gland and salivary gland. Isoform 2 (archvillin) is muscle specific.,
