About SSH1

Cytogenetic location: 12q24.11 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:108,778,191-108,857,583 (from NCBI)

This gene has 9 transcripts (splice variants), 270 orthologues and 30 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in gall bladder (RPKM 6.2), endometrium (RPKM 5.8) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the slingshot homolog (SSH) family of phosphatases, which regulate actin filament dynamics. The SSH proteins dephosphorylate and activate the actin binding/depolymerizing factor cofilin, which subsequently binds to actin filaments and stimulates their disassembly. Cofilin is inactivated by kinases such as LIM domain kinase-1 (LIMK1), which may also be dephosphorylated and inactivated by SSH proteins. The SSH family thus appears to play a role in actin dynamics by reactivating cofilin proteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described for this gene.
