**Plastin-2** is a [protein](/source/Protein) that in humans is encoded by the *LCP1* [gene](/source/Gene).[1]

## Function

[Plastins](/source/Plastin) are a family of actin-binding proteins that are conserved throughout eukaryote evolution and expressed in most tissues of higher eukaryotes. In humans, two ubiquitous plastin isoforms (L and T) have been identified. Plastin 1 (otherwise known as [fimbrin](/source/Fimbrin)) is a third distinct plastin isoform which is specifically expressed at high levels in the small intestine. The L isoform is expressed only in hemopoietic cell lineages, while the T isoform has been found in all other normal cells of solid tissues that have replicative potential (fibroblasts, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, melanocytes, etc.). However, L-plastin has been found in many types of malignant human cells of non-[hemopoietic](/source/Hemopoietic) origin suggesting that its expression is induced accompanying [tumorigenesis](/source/Tumorigenesis) in solid tissues.[2]
