Highly conserved and widely expressed plastin proteins comprise a subset of actin-binding proteins that include proteins that promote actin bundling.
Three plastins exhibiting differential expression are found in mam-mals and include L-plastin, T-plastin and I-plastin.
T-plastin (plastin-3) is found in cells of most solid tissues while I- plastin (plastin-1) is expressed specifically in kidney, colon and small intestine.
L-plastin (plastin-2) or LCP1 (lymphocyte cytosolic protein 1) is mainly expressed in hematopoietic cells and non-hematopoietic tumors, including increased expression correlated with metastatic progression in colon cancer cell lines.
Overexpression of LCP1 in premetastatic cancer cell lines induces invasion and loss of E-cadherin expression, which is characteristic of metastatic cancer cell lines.
LCP1 becomes phosphorylated at Ser5 upon stimulation through the T-cell receptor/co-receptor complex (TCR/CD3) in association with the CD2 cell adhe-sion molecule or the CD28 receptor.
Phosphorylation at Ser5 increases LCP1 ability to bind F-actin and increases cell motility.
