Rabbit Anti-PDLIM3/FITC Conjugated antibody
background:
The protein encoded by this gene contains a PDZ domain and a LIM domain, indicating that it may be involved in cytoskeletal assembly. In support of this, the encoded protein has been shown to bind the spectrin-like repeats of alpha-actinin-2 and to colocalize with alpha-actinin-2 at the Z lines of skeletal muscle. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been observed for this gene. Aberrant alternative splicing of this gene may play a role in myotonic dystrophy.
Function:
May play a role in the organization of actin filament arrays within muscle cells.
Subunit:
Interacts with ACTN2.
Subcellular Location:
Cytoplasm, myofibril, sarcomere, Z line. Note=Localizes to myofiber Z-lines.
Tissue Specificity:
Isoform 1 is highly expressed in differentiated skeletal muscle. Isoform 2 is heart-specific.
Similarity:
Contains 1 LIM zinc-binding domain.
Contains 1 PDZ (DHR) domain.
