{"symbol":"PARVA","synonyms":["CH-ILKBP","MXRA2"],"name":"parvin, alpha","description":"This gene encodes a member of the parvin family of actin-binding proteins. Parvins are associated with focal contacts and contain calponin homology domains that bind to actin filaments. The encoded protein is part of the integrin-linked kinase signaling complex and plays a role in cell adhesion, motility and survival.
