[HTML][HTML] Are biological sensors modulated by their structural scaffolds? The role of the structural muscle proteins α-actinin-2 and α-actinin-3 as modulators of biological …
Biological sensors and their ability to detect and respond to change in the cellular
environment can be modulated by protein scaffolds acting within their interaction network.
The skeletal muscle α-actinins have been considered as primarily structural scaffold
proteins. However, deficiency of α-actinin-3 due to a common null polymorphism results in
predominantly metabolic changes in skeletal muscle function. In this review, we explore the
range of phenotypes associated with α-actinin-3 deficiency, and draw supporting evidence …

However, deficiency of α-actinin-3 due to a common null polymorphism results in predominantly metabolic changes in skeletal muscle function. In this review, we explore the range of phenotypes associated with α-actinin-3 deficiency, and draw supporting evidence from known interaction partners for its role as a scaffold which acts to modulate biological sensors that result in changes in muscle metabolism and structure.
