Isolation and localization of filamin in heart muscle

High‐molecular‐mass protein was isolated from chicken heart muscle. The apparent molecular mass of a single polypeptide chain is similar to that of chicken gizzard filamin: 250–270 kDa. The protein interacts with antibodies against chicken gizzard filamin and induces F‐actin gelation in a concentrat...

Zusammenfassung:High‐molecular‐mass protein was isolated from chicken heart muscle. The apparent molecular mass of a single polypeptide chain is similar to that of chicken gizzard filamin: 250–270 kDa. The protein interacts with antibodies against chicken gizzard filamin and induces F‐actin gelation in a concentration‐dependent manner. Immunofluorescent staining of cardiomyocytes and chicken heart sections with antifilamin antibody demonstrates two types of filamin localization: (a) filamin was located on the sarcomete border in the periphery of the Z‐disk; (b) filamin was found in intercalated disks between cardiomyocytes.
