Differential Association of Syntrophin Pairs with the Dystrophin Complex
The syntrophins are a multigene family of intracellular dystrophin-associated proteins comprising three isoforms, alpha1, beta1, and beta2. Based on their domain organization and association with neuronal nitric oxide synthase, syntrophins are thought to function as modular adapters that recruit signaling proteins to the membrane via association with the dystrophin complex. Using sequences deri...
متن کاملRegulation of capacitative calcium entries by 1-syntrophin: association of TRPC1 with dystrophin complex and the PDZ domain of 1-syntrophin
Calcium mishandling in Duchenne dystrophic muscle suggested that dystrophin, a membraneassociated cytoskeleton protein, might regulate calcium signaling cascade such as calcium influx pathway. It was previously shown that abnormal calcium entries involve uncontrolled stretch-activated currents and store-operated Ca currents supported by TRPC1 channels. Moreover, our recent work demonstrated tha...
متن کاملThe potassium channel Kir4.1 associates with the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex via alpha-syntrophin in glia.
One of the major physiological roles of potassium channels in glial cells is to promote "potassium spatial buffering" in the central nervous system, a process necessary to maintain an optimal potassium concentration in the extracellular environment. This process requires the precise distribution of potassium channels accumulated at high density in discrete subdomains of glial cell membranes. To...
متن کاملAlternative splicing of dystrobrevin regulates the stoichiometry of syntrophin binding to the dystrophin protein complex
Dystrophin coordinates the assembly of a complex of structural and signalling proteins that is required for normal muscle function. A key component of the dystrophin-associated protein complex (DPC) is alpha-dystrobrevin, a dystrophin-related and -associated protein whose absence results in muscular dystrophy and neuromuscular junction defects [1,2]. The current model of the DPC predicts that d...
متن کاملIdentification of α - Syntrophin Binding to Syntrophin Triplet , Dystrophin , and Utrophin
Syntrophin represents three cytoplasmic components of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex that links the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix in skeletal muscle. α-Syntrophin has now been translated in vitro and shown to associate directly with all three components of the syntrophin triplet and with dystrophin. The in vitro translated 71-kDa non-muscle dystrophin isoform, containing the cys...
