Vinculin is a cytoskeletal protein that plays an important role in the regulation of focal adhesions and embryonic development (1).
Three structural vinculin domains include an N-terminal head, a short flexible proline-rich region and a C-terminal tail (2).
Expression of vinculin were shown to be affected by the level of actin expression (2,3).
Vinculin deficiencies are associated with a decrease in cell adhesion and an increase in cell motility, suggesting a possible role in metastatic growth (4).
Defects in VCL are the cause of cardiomyopathy dilated type 1W (CMD1W) (5).
