On the protein level the following designations are being used for antigen Vinculin:

vinculin – metavinculin – vinculin A – CG3299-PA – Vinc-PA – vinculin at 2EF – vinculin-like

Vinculin fulfills a number of functions:

actin binding – alpha-catenin binding – oxidoreductase activity – structural molecule activity – Rho GTPase binding – protein binding – beta-dystroglycan binding

Vinculin is relevant to the following processes:

apical junction assembly – cell adhesion – cell motion – lamellipodium assembly – negative regulation of cell migration – regulation of cell migration – cytokinesis – cytoskeletal anchoring at plasma membrane – phagocytosis, engulfment – adherens junction assembly – epithelial cell-cell adhesion – morphogenesis of an epithelium – muscle contraction – protein localization at cell surface – metabolic process

Locations for Vinculin:

actin cytoskeleton – adherens junction – cell-cell junction – cell-substrate junction – costamere – cytoplasm – cytosol – extracellular region – focal adhesion – internal side of plasma membrane – plasma membrane – protein complex – fascia adherens – cell cortex – actin filament – cell junction – cytoskeleton – membrane – stress fiber – cell-cell adherens junction
