Background: FLNC
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).
