Obscurin (OBSCN)
[Edit]UNC89; ARHGEF30; Obscurin-MLCK; Cytoskeletal Calmodulin And Titin-Interacting RhoGEF; Obscurin-myosin light chain kinase
The obscurin gene spans more than 150 kb, contains over 80 exons and encodes a protein of approximately 720 kDa. The encoded protein contains 68 Ig domains, 2 fibronectin domains, 1 calcium/calmodulin-binding domain, 1 RhoGEF domain with an associated PH domain, and 2 serine-threonine kinase domains.
This protein belongs to the family of giant sacromeric signaling proteins that includes titin and nebulin, and may have a role in the organization of myofibrils during assembly and may mediate interactions between the sarcoplasmic reticulum and myofibrils. While several transcript variants likely exist for this gene, the full-length nature of only one has been described to date.
