Evolution of the vertebrate paralemmin gene family: ancient origin of gene duplicates suggests distinct functions.
Paralemmin-1 is a protein implicated in plasma membrane dynamics, the development of filopodia, neurites and dendritic spines, as well as the invasiveness and metastatic potential of cancer cells. However, little is known about its mode of action, or about the biological functions of the other paral...
