Structural highlights
FunctionMYOM1_MOUSE May link the intermediate filament cytoskeleton to the M-disk of the myofibrils in striated muscle. May also contact myosin filaments. Also binds beta-integrins. Publication Abstract from PubMedOver the last two decades, our knowledge concerning intracellular events that regulate integrin's affinity to their soluble ligands has significantly improved. However, the mechanism of adhesion-induced integrin clustering and development of focal complexes, which could further mature to form focal adhesions, still remains under-investigated. Here we present a structural model of tandem IgC2 domains of skelemin in complex with the cytoplasmic tails of integrin alphaIIbbeta3. The model is generated based upon NMR data and this tertiary assembly illuminates a potential link between the essential cell adhesion receptors and myosin filaments. This connection may serve as a basis for generating the mechanical forces necessary for cell migration and remodeling.
