| Description | Thymosin beta-4 (T beta 4) [Contains: Hematopoietic system regulatorypeptide (Seraspenide)]. |
| Source organism | Rattus norvegicus (Rat) |
| Taxonomical Classification | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi;Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Glires; Rodentia; Sciurognathi;Muroidea; Muridae; Murinae; Rattus. |
| Subcellular location | Cytoplasm |
| Developmental Stage | N/A |
| Similarity | Belongs to the thymosin beta family. |
| Tissue Specificity | Originally found in thymus but it is widely distributed in many tissues |
| Post translational modification | N/A |
| Function | Plays an important role in the organization of the cytoskeleton. Binds to and sequesters actin monomers (G actin) and therefore inhibits actin polymerization |
