Talin is a large dimeric 270 kDa adapter protein which binds the cytoplasmic face of a subset of integrin beta-subunits and couples them to the actin cytoskeleton. Here we report the near complete 15N, 13C and 1H chemical shift assignments for the C-terminal actin-binding domain.

Filamin A (FLNA) is an actin-binding protein that has been reported to interact with STIM1 modulating the activation of Orai1 channels. Cleaving of FLNA by calpain leads to a C-terminal fragment that is involved in a variety of functional and pathological events, including pro-oncogenic activity in different types of cancer. Here we show that full-length FLNA is downregulated in samples from colon cancer patients as well as in the adenocarcinoma cell line HT-29.

Systemic capillary leak syndrome (SCLS) is a rare life-threatening disorder due to profound vascular leak. The trigger and the cause of the disease are currently unknown and there is no specific treatment. Here, we identified a rare heterozygous splice-site variant in the TLN1 gene in a familial SCLS case, suggestive of autosomal dominant inheritance with incomplete penetrance.

Formins are proteins that catalyze the formation of linear filaments made of actin. INF2, a formin, is crucial for correct vesicular transport, microtubule stability and mitochondrial division. Its activity is regulated by a complex of cyclase-associated protein and lysine-acetylated G-actin (KAc-actin), which helps INF2 adopt an inactive conformation through the association of its N-terminal diaphanous inhibitory domain (DID) with its C-terminal diaphanous autoinhibitory domain.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is a predominant health concern in many countries. Actin-binding Rho activating C-terminal-like (ABRACL) belongs to a new family of low molecular weight proteins and has been implicated in cancers. This study was implemented to elucidate the role and mechanism of ABRACL in GC.
