Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** ACTN1 is a member of the actinin family of proteins, which are characterized by their ability to bind to actin filaments. ACTN1 is composed of three domains: the N-terminal domain, the central domain, and the C-terminal domain, which interact with actin filaments and other proteins. ACTN1 is highly expressed in muscle cells, epithelial cells, and other cell types, where it plays a crucial role in maintaining cell shape, motility, and adhesion. **Pathways and Functions:** ACTN1 is involved in a wide range of cellular processes, including: 1. **Cell adhesion**: ACTN1 interacts with integrins, focal adhesion proteins, and other adhesion molecules to regulate cell adhesion and migration. 2. **Cytoskeletal organization**: ACTN1 regulates the organization and dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton, influencing cell shape, motility, and signaling. 3. **Signaling**: ACTN1 interacts with various signaling proteins, including Rho GTPases, to regulate cell signaling pathways involved in proliferation, differentiation, and survival. 4. **Apoptosis**: ACTN1 regulates apoptosis by interacting with pro-apoptotic and anti-apoptotic proteins, influencing cell survival and death. **Clinical Significance:** ACTN1 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Muscular dystrophy**: ACTN1 mutations have been associated with muscular dystrophy, a group of genetic disorders characterized by progressive muscle weakness and degeneration. 2. **Cardiovascular disease**: ACTN1 has been linked to cardiovascular disease, including hypertension, atherosclerosis, and cardiac arrhythmias. 3. **Cancer**: ACTN1 has been implicated in cancer progression, including metastasis, invasion, and angiogenesis. 4. **Neurological disorders**: ACTN1 has been associated with neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and stroke. **Significantly Expressed Cells:** ACTN1 is highly expressed in various cell types, including: 1. **Uterine smooth muscle cells**: ACTN1 regulates uterine contractions and labor. 2. **Myoepithelial cells of mammary gland**: ACTN1 maintains milk ejection and ductal contraction. 3. **Ciliary muscle cells**: ACTN1 regulates accommodation and focus in the eye. 4. **Smooth muscle cells of large intestine**: ACTN1 regulates bowel motility and secretion. **Proteins:** ACTN1_HUMAN (Alpha-actinin-1) is the primary protein product of the ACTN1 gene. In conclusion, ACTN1 is a multifaceted protein that plays a crucial role in various cellular processes, including cell adhesion, signaling, and cytoskeletal organization. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, including muscular dystrophy, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurological disorders. Further research on ACTN1 is necessary to fully understand its role in human disease and to develop therapeutic strategies for its dysregulation.

Database document:

This is a preview of the gene's schema. Only a few entries are kept for 'singleCellExpressions,' 'mRNAExpressions,' and other large data arrays for visualization purposes. You can zoom in with the mouse wheel for a closer view, and the text will adjust automatically if necessary. For the full schema, download it here.
