Extra Details:
The alpha-actinins are a multigene family of four actin-binding proteins related to dystrophin. The two skeletal muscle isoforms of alpha-actinin (ACTN2 and ACTN3) are major structural components of the Z-line involved in anchoring the actin-containing thin filaments. In humans; ACTN2 is expressed in all muscle fibres; while ACTN3 expression is restricted to a subset of type 2 fibres. Murine Actn2 and Actn3 are differentially expressed; spatially and temporally; during embryonic development and; in contrast to humans; alpha-actinin-2 expression does not completely overlap alpha-actinin-3 in postnatal skeletal muscle; suggesting independent function.Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins; including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells; the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions; where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast; skeletal; cardiac; and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies; where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a muscle-specific; alpha actinin isoform that is expressed in both skeletal and cardiac muscles. Transcript variants resulting from the use of multiple poly_A sites have been observed.
