The dystrophin-associated proteins are classified into three groups: (1) alpha- and beta-dystroglycan, (2) adhalin, 35DAG and A3b, and (3) members of the syntrophin family. Dystrophin interacts with F-actin via the N-terminal domain. Alpha-dystroglycan binds laminin-2, a major component of the basal lamina....
