== Actin Binding Protein ==
== Actin Binding Protein ==
Severin is a calcium-activated protein which binds actin.  It nucleates actin assembly, severes F-actin  and caps actin filaments. Severin is a member of the calcium-regulated gelsolin superfamily of actin severing and capping proteins. Severin comprises 6 homologous domains (A1-A6), which share 60% identity with the 6 domains from [[Gelsolin]] (G1-G6). It is named Adseverin and Scinderin as well.
