    text localizes within nuclei and with dystrophin at costameres, regions of F-actin membrane attachment in skeletal muscle
    basic FUNCTION
  • bipartite protein linking with high- affinity the actin cytoskeleton and the membrane
  • including recruitment of actin and other cytoskeletal proteins into specialized structures at the plasma membrane and in the nuclei of growing cells
  • may mediate actin and myosin II filament organization at cholesterol-rich membrane domains
  • costameric protein assembling during myogenesis and contributing to myogenic membrane structure and differentiation
  • serves as a new ERK scaffolding protein and provides a mechanism for regulation of ERK binding, activation and release from the signaling complex (Gangopadhyay 2009)
  • attaches directly to the Z-line through an interaction with the nebulin C-terminus (Lee 2009)

    protein
  • F-actin binding
  • associates with androgen receptor (AR) and modulates its transcriptional activity
  • interaction with nebulin (may provide a direct link between the sarcolemma and myofibrillar Z-lines)
  • smooth muscle archvillin binds ERK and members of the ERK signaling cascade (MEK, B-Raf) (Gangopadhyay 2009)
  • cell & other
    REGULATION
    Other phosphorylation by ERK decreases the association of phospho ERK with smooth muscle archvillin (Gangopadhyay 2009)
