词条 | Actinin |
释义 |
Actinin is a microfilament protein. α-Actinin is necessary for the attachment of actin filaments to the Z-lines in skeletal muscle cells,[1] and to the dense bodies in smooth muscle cells.[2] The functional protein is an anti-parallel dimer, which cross-links the thin filaments in adjacent sarcomeres, and therefore coordinates contractions between sarcomeres in the horizontal axis. The non-sarcomeric α-actinins, encoded by ACTN1 and ACTN4, are widely expressed. ACTN2 expression is found in both cardiac and skeletal muscle, whereas ACTN3 is limited to the latter. Both ends of the rod-shaped α-actinin dimer contain actin-binding domains. Mutations in ACTN4 can cause the kidney disease focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS).[3] See also
