Formins

**Definition:** A family of multidomain microfilament proteins associated with ACTIN FILAMENTS. They generally have multiple Formin-Homology domains (e.g., FH2 domain) and additionally have a RhoGTPase-binding domain and a diaphanous inhibitory domain. Formins and homologs are involved in actin reorganization.
