TLN1 (Talin-1) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
High molecular weight cytoskeletal protein concentrated at regions of cell-matrix and cell-cell contacts. Involved in connections of major cytoskeletal structures to the plasma membrane. With KANK1 co-organise the assembly of cortical microtubule stabilising complexes (CMSCs) positioned to control microtubule-actin crosstalk at focal adhesions (FAs) rims.
Open Targets scores its association with cancer at 0.64 (direct and indirect evidence; datatypes literature 0.98, affected pathway 0.83, genetic association 0.00).
In plain words · TLN1 (Talin-1) is a gene. In the public catalogues the evidence so far is association rather than a proven role.
