Crystal structure of Actin capping protein in complex with the Cp-binding motif derived from CD2AP

Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 20625546

Disease

[CD2AP_HUMAN] Defects in CD2AP are the cause of susceptibility to focal segmental glomerulosclerosis type 3 (FSGS3) [MIM:607832]. A renal pathology defined by the presence of segmental sclerosis in glomeruli and resulting in proteinuria, reduced glomerular filtration rate and edema. Renal insufficiency often progresses to end-stage renal disease, a highly morbid state requiring either dialysis therapy or kidney transplantation.^[1]

Function

[CAZA1_CHICK] F-actin-capping proteins bind in a Ca(2+)-independent manner to the fast growing ends of actin filaments (barbed end) thereby blocking the exchange of subunits at these ends. Unlike other capping proteins (such as gelsolin and severin), these proteins do not sever actin filaments. CapZ may mediate the attachment of the barbed ends of actin filaments to the Z-line. [CD2AP_HUMAN] Seems to act as an adapter protein between membrane proteins and the actin cytoskeleton. May play a role in receptor clustering and cytoskeletal polarity in the junction between T-cell and antigen-presenting cell. May anchor the podocyte slit diaphragm to the actin cytoskeleton in renal glomerolus. Also required for cytokinesis.^[2] [CAPZB_CHICK] F-actin-capping proteins bind in a Ca(2+)-independent manner to the fast growing ends of actin filaments (barbed end) thereby blocking the exchange of subunits at these ends. Unlike other capping proteins (such as gelsolin and severin), these proteins do not sever actin filaments. May play a role in the regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization.
