General description
The ADF (actin-depolymerizing factor)/cofilin family (see MIM 601442) is composed of stimulus-responsive mediators of actin dynamics. ADF/cofilin proteins are inactivated by kinases such as LIM domain kinase-1 (LIMK1; MIM 601329). The SSH family appears to play a role in actin dynamics by reactivating ADF/cofilin proteins in vivo (Niwa et al., 2002 [PubMed 11832213]).[supplied by OMIM

Biochem/physiol Actions
SSH1 (Slingshot protein phosphatase 1) is mainly involved in the actin filament organization. During cytokinesis, it reactivates ADF (actin-depolymerizing factor)/cofilin, which plays a major role in actin filament dynamics and cell migration. Apart from cofilin reactivation, it also dephosphorylates P-cofilin in vitro and in vivo. Overexpression of SSH1 has been reported in pancreatic cancer (PC) cells, which indicates its role in tumor cell migration via SSH1L/cofilin-1 signal pathway.
