General description
α-Actinin exists as a rod-shaped antiparallel dimer with two elongated subunits. The domain region contains an N-terminal actin-binding domain with tandem calponin homology domains, a central tandem 3-helix motifs, and EF-hand motifs at C-terminus. It belongs to the spectrin superfamily and is localized in actin structures.
Application
α-Actinin from chicken gizzard has been used:
- as an antigen to coat plates for the capture of anti-actinin antibody using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) from tumor cell line clones
- in in vitro motility experiments to test its effect on actin filament movement
- to coat cantilevers for strengthening fluorescently labeled actin filaments in force measurement studies
Biochem/physiol Actions
α-Actinin binds actin and has the ability to crosslink actin cytoskeleton. It also plays a key role in the structural maintenance of the Z-disk of striated muscle.

The Drosophila Alp/Enigma family protein Zasp52 localizes to myotendinous junctions and Z-discs. It is required for terminal muscle differentiation and muscle attachment. Its vertebrate ortholog ZASP/Cypher also localizes to Z-discs, interacts with α-actinin through its PDZ domain, and is involved

The contribution of three actin cross-linking proteins, alpha-actinin (alphaA), gelation factor (ABP-120), and the 34 kDa actin-bundling protein to cellular functions has been studied in three single mutant (alphaA-, 120-, and 34-) and three double mutant (alphaA-/120-, 34-/alphaA-, 34-/120-) strains

Cryoelectron microscopy was used to obtain a 3-D image at 2.0 nm resolution of 2-D arrays of smooth muscle alpha-actinin. The reconstruction reveals a well-resolved long central domain with 90 degrees of left-handed twist and near 2-fold symmetry. However, the

Muscle, motor unit and muscle fibre type-specific differences in force-generating capacity have been investigated for many years, but there is still no consensus regarding specific differences between slow- and fast-twitch muscles, motor units or muscle fibres. This is probably related

Online label-free monitoring of in-vitro differentiation of stem cells remains a major challenge in stem cell research. In this paper we report the use of Raman micro-spectroscopy (RMS) to measure time- and spatially-resolved molecular changes in intact embryoid bodies (EBs)
