| Description | Slingshot (SSH) is a cofilin-specific phosphatase. Dephosphorylation reactivates cofilin, which in turn depolymerizes actin and is thus required for actin filament reorganization [ ]. Slingshot is a member of the dual-specificity protein phosphatase family []. The N-terminal SSH region may be involved in P-cofilin binding (the model C terminus plus the DEK_C-like domain, which are characterized as the "B"domain in some of the literature), and may be required for the F-actin mediated activation of slingshot [ , ]. |
