Introduction

Myotilin is a 498-amino-acid cytoskeletal protein with the size of 55 kDa, localized in sarcomeric Z-discs of both skeletal and cardiac muscle[1]. It belongs to a small group of scaffolding proteins, together with palladin and myopapalladin, which regulate actin organisation[2]. Myotilin consists of a unique serine-rich amino-terminus, followed by two c-terminal half immunoglobulin-like (Ig) domains and a short carboxy-terminus containing PDZ-binding motif (UNIPROT Myotilin). Major proteins of the sarcomeric Z-disk have been reported to interact with myotilin, inlcuding alpha-actinin-2, filamin C, ZASP, FATZ [3] [4] [5] as well as the Z-disk localized muscle quality control proteins - MuRFs (MuRF3 and MuRF1)[6]. The appearance of myotilin with alpha-actinin-2 and other proteins in Z-bodies of premyofibrils, at the very early stage of myofibre development, suggests essential role for the protein in muscle formation [7] [8]. Likewise, muscle disorders such as limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 1A (LGMD1A) and myofibrillar myopathy (MFM) which results from several point mutations in myotilin have linked the protein to stabilization role in myofibrils [9].

Pathology

The disorders typically manifest as proximal weakness of the extremities but may also include cardiomyopathy and peripheral neuropathy. Ultrastructural changes include Z-disk alterations and accumulation of dense filamentous myotilin. Single missense mutation, mostly in the N-terminal serine-rich part of the protein, causes the onset of both disorders. Thus, mutation has a dominant negative effect on functionality of myotilin.[10] [11]

Interactions of Myotilin

All myotilin's binding partners are components of Z-disk and include actin,[12] α-actinin-2,[13] filamin C, FATZ[14] and ZASP[15]. Myotilin cross-links and efficiently bundles actin filaments.[16]
