Other Information

## Summary The ACTC1 gene encodes a protein called actin alpha cardiac muscle 1, which is a key component of the cardiac cytoskeleton. This protein is expressed in a variety of cell types in the heart, including skeletal muscle cells, lymphocytes, fibroblasts, cardiac muscle cells, atrial muscle cells, and smooth muscle cells. ## Key characteristics * **Function:** Acts as a structural protein, providing the backbone for the cardiac cytoskeleton. * **Location:** Found in the cytoplasm of cardiac cells. * **Structure:** A globular protein with a molecular weight of approximately 425 kDa. * **Isoform:** There is one known isoform of ACTC1, which is expressed in cardiac muscle cells. ## Pathways and functions * **Actin-myosin filament sliding:** ACTC1 is a key component of the cardiac cytoskeleton, where it interacts with myosin to form the actin-myosin filament. This complex is responsible for the sliding motion of cardiac muscle cells. * **Actin filament-based movement:** The actin-myosin filament is responsible for the characteristic muscle contractions in the heart. * **Actin filament organization:** ACTC1 is also involved in the organization of the cardiac cytoskeleton, where it helps to maintain the integrity and stability of the network. * **Actomyosin structure organization:** ACTC1 is a major component of the actomyosin structure, which is responsible for the periodic changes in muscle thickness that are characteristic of cardiac contraction. * **Atp binding:** ACTC1 is a substrate for ATP-dependent protein kinase (AKP), which is a key regulator of cardiac function. * **Hydrolase activity:** ACTC1 is a protease that is involved in the regulation of cardiac function. ## Clinical significance Mutations in the ACTC1 gene have been linked to a number of cardiovascular diseases, including cardiomyopathy, heart failure, and hypertension. These mutations can lead to the formation of abnormal cardiac myofilaments, which can disrupt the normal functioning of the heart muscle.
