General annotation (Comments)

Function

Actins are highly conserved proteins that are involved in various types of cell motility and are ubiquitously expressed in all eukaryotic cells.

Subunit structure

Polymerization of globular actin (G-actin) leads to a structural filament (F-actin) in the form of a two-stranded helix. Each actin can bind to 4 others.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasmcytoskeleton.

Post-translational modification

Oxidation of Met-46 by MICALs (MICAL1, MICAL2 or MICAL3) to form methionine sulfoxide promotes actin filament depolymerization. Methionine sulfoxide is produced stereospecifically, but it is not known whether the (S)-S-oxide or the (R)-S-oxide is produced By similarity.

Involvement in disease

Cardiomyopathy, dilated 1R (CMD1R) [MIM:613424]: A disorder characterized by ventricular dilation and impaired systolic function, resulting in congestive heart failure and arrhythmia. Patients are at risk of premature death.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.4

Cardiomyopathy, familial hypertrophic 11 (CMH11) [MIM:612098]: A hereditary heart disorder characterized by ventricular hypertrophy, which is usually asymmetric and often involves the interventricular septum. The symptoms include dyspnea, syncope, collapse, palpitations, and chest pain. They can be readily provoked by exercise. The disorder has inter- and intrafamilial variability ranging from benign to malignant forms with high risk of cardiac failure and sudden cardiac death.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.5 Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.9

Atrial septal defect 5 (ASD5) [MIM:612794]: A congenital heart malformation characterized by incomplete closure of the wall between the atria resulting in blood flow from the left to the right atria.
Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.8

Miscellaneous

In vertebrates 3 main groups of actin isoforms, alpha, beta and gamma have been identified. The alpha actins are found in muscle tissues and are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus. The beta and gamma actins coexist in most cell types as components of the cytoskeleton and as mediators of internal cell motility.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the actin family.
