Alpha actinins belong to the spectrin gene superfamily which represents a diverse group of cytoskeletal proteins| including the alpha and beta spectrins and dystrophins. Alpha actinin is an actin-binding protein with multiple roles in different cell types. In nonmuscle cells| the cytoskeletal isoform is found along microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions| where it is involved in binding actin to the membrane. In contrast| skeletal| cardiac| and smooth muscle isoforms are localized to the Z-disc and analogous dense bodies| where they help anchor the myofibrillar actin filaments. This gene encodes a nonmuscle| cytoskeletal| alpha actinin isoform and maps to the same site as the structurally similar erythroid beta spectrin gene. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Actinin alpha 1 (ACTN1), encoding alpha-actinin-1, is a non-muscle cytoskeletal actin-binding protein. This target record connects human NCBI Gene 87, reviewed UniProtKB P12814 and related ABMIUM catalogue products.
Biological function: Alpha-actinin-1, encoded by ACTN1 (actinin alpha 1), is an F-actin cross-linking protein that helps anchor actin filaments to intracellular structures. In non-muscle cells it contributes to microfilament bundles and adherens-type junctions; reviewed UniProt also curates an IGSF8-associated role in immune-synapse formation and efficient T-cell activation.
