Function

Spectrin forms scaffolding in plasma membranes and cytoskeletal structure. It interacts with actin at either end of its tetramer^[1]. The SPT dimer is formed by association of α1 and β1 monomers. In invertebrates there are SPT α, β and βH. In vertebrates there are SPT α1 (SPTA1), α2 (SPTA2) and β1 (SPTB1) to β5. SPT contains an SRC Homology 3 domain (SH3), a Pleckstrin Homology (PH) domain and a Calponin Homology (CH) domain.

Spectrin α2 is expressed highly in heart muscle cells^[2].
Spectrin β2 is associated with GABA receptor at dendritic synapses^[3].
Spectrin β4 is associated with GABA receptor at axon initial segment synapses.
Spectrin R16 is spectrin α first repeat domain^[4].

Disease

Mutations in SPT α are found in patients with hereditary elliptocytosis^[5]. SPT β deficiency is found in hereditary spherocytosis^[6].
