FAMILY
  • tropomodulin family
  • CATEGORY antigen
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION     intracellular
    intracellular,cytoplasm,cytoskeleton
    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in tropomyosin binding
  • appropriate levels of both TMOD4 and LMOD3 are required for embryonic myofibrillogenesis and, both proteins can function redundantly during skeletal muscle thin filament assembly
  • is required in the fast fibers for sarcomere integrity
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY

    signaling
    a component
    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • TMOD1 and TMOD4 cap thin filament pointed ends and functionally interact with the LMOD isoforms LMOD2 and LMOD3 to control myofibril organization, thin filament lengths, and actomyosin crossbridge formation in skeletal muscle fibers
