Abstract excerpt
Filamin A (FLNa) is a large dimeric protein that binds to actin filaments via its actin-binding domain (ABD). The crystal structure of this domain was solved at 3.2 A resolution. The domain adopts a closed conformation typical of other ABDs, but also forms a dimer both in crystallization conditions and in solution. The structure shows the localization of the residues mutated in patients with periventricular...
