Abstract excerpt
Filamin c (FLNc) is a large dimeric actin-binding protein located at premyofibrils, myofibrillar Z-discs and myofibrillar attachment sites of striated muscle cells, where it is involved in mechanical stabilization, mechanosensation and intracellular signaling. Mutations in the gene encoding FLNc give rise to skeletal muscle diseases and cardiomyopathies. Here, we demonstrate by fluorescence recovery after...
