ZYXIN
Zyxin is LIM domain protein of the zyxin/ajuba family, encode by the gene ZYX [1], that codes for a protein of 84 kDa that contains 3 LIM zinc-binding domains.
Function
Zyxin is a focal adhesion plaque protein, which associates with the actin cytoskeleton near the adhesion plaques and enters the nucleus in the presence of HESX1. Ref.1 Ref.2 It is postulate, that Zyxin may be a component of a signal transduction pathway that mediates adhesion-stimulated changes in gene expression by similarity.
Interactions
Performing yeast two-hybrid analysis system, Yu and Luo found that myopodin interacts with zyxin both in vitro and in vivo and that this interaction leads to slower migration of prostate cancer cells and reduced invasiveness (Yu YP, Luo JH, 2006). Zyxin interacts with the E6 Protein from Human Papillomavirus Type 6 and this interaction results in its nuclear translocation [1].
Interacts, via the Pro-rich regions, with the EVH1 domains of ENAH, EVL and VASP. Interacts with the first LIM domain of TES. Ref.3 Ref.4 Ref.5 Ref.6
