Background
The actin-filament associated protein (AFAP) family consists of AFAP1, AFAP1L1, and AFAP1L2/XB130, a group of structurally similar proteins that play distinct roles in the regulation of cytoskeletal dynamics and signal transduction. Actin filament-associated protein 1-like 2 (AFAP1L2, XB130) is an adaptor protein that regulates signaling downstream of multiple kinases, including Src, Akt, and the thyroid specific kinase RET/PTC (1-3). Through these pathways, AFAP1L2/XB130 mediates transcriptional regulation, cell proliferation, motility, and microRNA expression (4,5). Research has shown that AFAP1L2/XB130 is involved in the proliferation and survival of thyroid tumor cells (6), and may have value in gastric cancer prognosis (7).
