Abstract excerpt
Filamin c is the predominantly expressed filamin isoform in striated muscles. It is localized in myofibrillar Z-discs, where it binds FATZ and myotilin, and in myotendinous junctions and intercalated discs. Here, we identify Xin, the protein encoded by the human gene 'cardiomyopathy associated 1' (CMYA1) as filamin c binding partner at these specialized structures where the ends of myofibrils are attached to the...
