MYOPODIN

Myopodin protein, encoded by the gene SYNPO2[1], also called genethonin-2, synaptopodin-2 and fesselin, was first describe in 2001 by Weins et al., is widely expressed in striated- and smooth-muscle cells (Weins et al., 2001; Nelander et al., 2003) [1] [2] and several reports described the expression of alternative myopodin isoforms in other human cells or tissues (De Ganck et al., 2008; Lin et al., 2001; Sanchez-Carbayo et al., 2003; Schroeter et al., 2008) [3] [4] [5] [6].

Function

Myopodin is a dual compartment protein that displays actin-bundling activity and redistributes between the nucleus and the cytoplasm in a differentiation-dependent and stress-induced fashion. The gene encoding Myopodin protein its form from 6 exons and codify for a protein of 80 kDa in skeletal muscle and 95kDa in the heart, the cause of this size difference remains to be established, but for several reasons, it appears to be due to post-translational modifications. Beyond the first 3 identified Isoforms, another 3 isoforms have been recently identify (Linneman et al. EJCB 2010) [7]. In undifferentiated myoblasts, myopodin is expressed preferentially in the nucleus and only weakly in the cytoplasm. In differentiated myotubes it is incorporated into the Z-disc and shows no detectable nuclear expression. Notably, this redistribution coincides with an increase in protein expression. Together, these findings indicate that myopodin may be involved in the regulation of myocyte differentiation (Weins et al. 2001). Myopodin gene was identified as a tumor suppressor gene that is frequently deleted in aggressive prostate cancer. Expression of myopodin protein suppresses both tumor growth and metastasis in vitro and in vivo (Jing et al, 2004) [8].

Myopodin Interactions

Actin was the first binding partner of synaptopodin to be identified (Mundel et al. 1997) [9] and is probably the most important partner. Myopodin has a novel actin binding site (Weins et al. 2001) that was identified by producing truncated fragments from myopodin. The smallest fragment that bound to F-actin contained residues 410–563 of mouse myopodin. Myopodin binds to α-actinin. That interaction has been shown to involve the spectrin filament domain repeat region of α-actinin (Pham and Chalovich 2006) [10]. Synaptopodin family members might be involved in the organization and anchoring of actin in the cell and might be necessary for the correct localization of α-actinin. That is supported by recent findings that myopodin expression precedes α-actinin expression (Linnemann et al. 2010). A newly identified filamin-binding region within the molecule, by performing yeast two-hybrid assays using carboxy-terminally and/or amino-terminally truncated constructs (Linnemann et al. 2010). The interaction was mapped to a fragment encompassing amino acids 240–521 of myopodin, i.e. a region that contains two of the previously described homology regions shared by myopodin and synaptopodin (Lin et al., 2001) [11]. The alternative transcription offers the possibility of expression of two isoforms of Myopodin, which probably differ in their binding properties for these PDZ binding domain detected, however, there is preliminary evidence that the PDZ binding domain from Myopodin interacts with C terminal part of Synemin (Vakeel, 2006) [12]. 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) [13]. In the Cardiomyocytes myopodin forms a Z-disc signaling complex with α-actinin, calcineurin, Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII), muscle-specific A-kinase anchoring protein, and myomegalin. Calcineurin keeps myopodin dephosphorylated, and 14-3-3ß cannot directly bind to myopodin. Upon activation of PKA/CaMKII or inhibition of calcineurin, myopodin undergoes phosphorylation, thereby enabling its interaction with 14-3-3ß, which in turn causes the release of myopodin from Z-disc-anchoring proteins like α-actinin and induces its nuclear import.
