    PROTEIN
    PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
    STRUCTURE
    motifs/domains
  • eight Ig C2 domains
  • three fibronectin type III domains
  • N- and C_termini of MYBPC1 have distinct functions, which are regulated by differential splicing, and are compromized by the presence of missense point mutations linked to muscle disease
  • conjugated PhosphoP
    HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to murine Mybpc1
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • immunoglobulin superfamily
  • MYBP subfamily

    basic FUNCTION
  • may be playing a role in myofibril formation, that binds titin and myosin
  • may modulate muscle contraction or may play a more structural role
  • major myosin-associated protein in striated muscle that enhances the lateral association and stabilization of myosin thick filaments and regulates actomyosin
  • interactions
  • sarcomeric protein involved both in thick filament structure and in the regulation of contractility
  • potentially acting as an adaptor to connect the ATP consumer (myosin) and the regenerator (CKM) for efficient energy metabolism and homoeostasis
  • functions to modulate the formation of actomyosin cross-bridges, and to organize and stabilize sarcomeric A- and M-bands

    INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule
    protein
  • binding to myosin
  • binding to titin
  • binds to the LMM (light meromyosin) portion of the myosin rod via its C-terminal domain, C10
  • a new ligand of obscurin at the M-band is MYBPC1, suggesting that their interaction contributes to the assembly of M- and A-bands
  • CKM physically interact with the slow skeletal muscle-type MYBPC1 (CKM binds to the C-terminal domains of MYBPC1, which is also the binding site of myosin)
