ALP Subfamily: PDZ/LIM domain proteins of the cytoskeleton

On the basis of structural similarities, the ALP (α-Actinin-associated LIM domain Proteins) subfamily are related to the Enigma subfamily [1], containing PDZ/LIM-domains, as well as internal motifs viz ALP-like motif (AM) and ZASP-like motif (ZM). However, the ALP subfamily differs from the Enigma subfamily as each member of the ALP subfamily possess an N-terminal PDZ domain and only one C-terminal LIM domain.

Four proteins: ALP (aka PDLIM3)[1], CLP36[2] (aka hCLIM1(human)[3], Elfin (mouse)[4], PDLIM1), RIL[5] (aka PDLIM4) and Mystique[6],[7] (aka SLIM, PDLIM2) have been classified into the ALP subfamily.

CLP36 (C-terminal LIM Protein 36 kDa) and RIL (Reversion-Induced LIM) protein α-actinin-associated LIM protein (ALP) was first identified as a 39 kDa protein in rat skeletal muscle with a slightly shorter isoform in heart [8]. ALP includes both an N-terminal PDZ domain, which interacts with the a-actinin-2, and a C-terminal LIM domain. Thus, ALP shares a high degree of homology with previously characterized CLP-36 (Wang et al., 1995) and RIL (Kiess et al., 1995) proteins, suggesting a novel protein family containing an N-terminal PDZ domain and one C-terminal LIM motif (Xia et al., 1997).
