Species

Symbol
LMOD3
Name
leiomodin 3
Synonyms
  • DKFZp313F0135
  • leiomodin 3 (fetal)
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables actin monomer binding activity and tropomyosin binding activity. Involved in actin filament organization; positive regulation of skeletal muscle fiber development; and striated muscle contraction. Located in M band and striated muscle thin filament. Implicated in nemaline myopathy 10.
RGD Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the leiomodin family of proteins. This protein contains three actin-binding domains, a tropomyosin domain, a leucine-rich repeat domain, and a Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein homology 2 domain (WH2). Localization of this protein to the pointed ends of thin filaments has been observed, and there is evidence that this protein acts as a catalyst of actin nucleation, and is important to the organization of sarcomeric thin filaments in skeletal muscles. Mutations in this gene have been associated as one cause of Nemaline myopathy, as other genes have also been linked to this disorder. Nemaline myopathy is a disorder characterized by nonprogressive generalized muscle weakness and protein inclusions (nemaline bodies) in skeletal myofibers. Patients with mutations in this gene often present with a severe congenital form of the disorder. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]
