• Background: a-Actinin belongs to the spectrin family of cytoskeletal proteins. It was first recognized as an actin cross-linking protein, forming an antiparallel homodimer with an actin binding head at the amino terminus of each monomer. More recently,a-Actinin has been shown to interact with a large number of proteins involved in signaling to the cytoskeleton including those involved in cellular adhesion, migration, and immune cell targeting. The interaction of a-Actinin with intercellular adhesion molecule-5 (ICAM-5) helps to promote neurite outgrowth. In osteoblasts, interaction of a-Actinin with integrins stabilizes focal adhesions and may protect cells from apoptosis. Isoforms 1 and 4 of a-Actinin, which are non-muscle isoforms, are present in stress fibers, sites of adhesion and intercellular contacts, filopodia, and lamellipodia. The muscle isoforms 2 and 3 localize to the Z-discs of striated muscle and to dense bodies and plaques in smooth muscle.
