UniProt ID: Q32PU2 |
FUNCTION: Thin filament-associated protein that is implicated in the regulation and modulation of smooth muscle contraction. It is capable of binding to actin, calmodulin and tropomyosin. The interaction of calponin with actin inhibits the actomyosin Mg-ATPase activity. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00025109, ECO:0000256|RuleBase:RU361224}. SIMILARITY: Belongs to the calponin family. {ECO:0000256|ARBA:ARBA00009631, ECO:0000256|RuleBase:RU361224}. |
