Background: Mena

Mena (mammalian ENA; also protein enabled homolog) is a cytosolic member of the Ena/VASP family of proteins. It runs anomalously high in SDS-PAGE due to a high proline content. Multiple cell types produce Mena, including fibroblasts, myoepithelial cells, neurons and endothelium. Mena promotes the organization of actin filaments in filopodia, and strengthens cell-cell interactions in epithelia. Human Mena is 591 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one WH1 domain (aa 1‑111), two coiled-coil regions (aa 135‑265 and 557‑587), a Pro-rich segment (aa 310‑373) and an EVH domain (aa 391‑588) that binds G- and F-actin, and mediates tetramerization. There is a 140 kDa neuronal isoform that shows a large 228 aa insertion after Ala268.
