SPIRE1
Protein spire homolog 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPIRE1 gene . SPIRE1 interacts with actin monomers and actin nucleating formin proteins. SPIRE1 was first identified in Drosophila melanogaster . SPIRE1 contains an N-terminal KIND domain which binds formins and four actin-binding WH2 domains which nucleate actin filaments.
