Background: FLNC

FLNC, Filamin-c, Filamin-2 (FLN2), Actin binding-like protein (APBL) (290.8 kDa) is an isoform of the Filamin proteins family. Filamins are broadly expressed and function as actin-binding and actin-crosslinking proteins. Structurally, Filamins consist of three main domains; N-terminal actin-binding domain, multiple central immunoglobulin (Ig) domains, and a C-terminal domain which supports homodimerization (1, 2). Functionally, Filamins play a role in cytoskeleton structure through interactions with actin, but they are implicated in a wide range of processes through their interactions with diverse molecular partners such as signaling molecules (MKK4, JNK1), ion channels (Kv4.2, Kir2.1), receptors (Insulin, Calcitonin), and transcription factors (Smad1-6, Foxc1) (3).

Three isoforms of Filamin are expressed in mammals, identified as FLNA, FLNB and FLNC. FLNC is considered a muscle specific Filamin isoform for its high expression in cardiac and skeletal muscles. In muscle tissue, FLNC localizes to the Z-line, sarcolemma, myotendinous and intercalated disks (2). FLNC interacts with various muscle proteins via a non-conserved sequence within its Ig domain 20. Some muscle binding partners for FLNC include gamma and delta-sarcoglycans in the sarcolemma, and FATZ, myozenins, myotilin and myopodin in the Z-discs (2, 4). FLNC variants are associated with various inherited pathological conditions including myofibrillar myopathy 5, distal myopathy 4, dilated cardiomyopathy, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and restrictive cardiomyopathy (2, 5).
