>gnl|CDD|188727 cd09341, LIM2_Testin_like, The second LIM domain of Testin-like
           family.  The second LIM domain of Testin-like family:
           This family includes testin, prickle, dyxin and
           LIMPETin. Structurally, testin and prickle proteins
           contain three LIM domains at C-terminal; LIMPETin has
           six LIM domains; and dyxin presents only two LIM
           domains. However, all members of the family contain a
           PET protein-protein interaction domain.  Testin is a
           cytoskeleton associated focal adhesion protein that
           localizes along actin stress fibers, at
           cell-cell-contact areas, and at focal adhesion plaques.
           Testin interacts with a variety of cytoskeletal
           proteins, including zyxin, mena, VASP, talin, and actin
           and it is involved in cell motility and adhesion events.
           Prickles have been implicated in roles of regulating
           tissue polarity or planar cell polarity (PCP).  Dyxin
           involves in lung and heart development by interaction
           with GATA6 and blocking GATA6 activated target genes.
           LIMPETin might be the recombinant product of genes
           coding testin and four and half LIM proteins and its
           function is not well understood. As in other LIM
           domains, this domain family is 50-60 amino acids in size
           and shares two characteristic zinc finger motifs. The
           two zinc fingers contain eight conserved residues,
           mostly cysteines and histidines, which coordinately bond
           to two zinc atoms. LIM domains function as adaptors or
           scaffolds to support the assembly of multimeric protein
           complexes.

           biological functions, including gene expression
           regulation, cell fate determination, cytoskeleton
           organization, tumor formation and development. LIM
           domains function as adaptors or scaffolds to support the

           their functions through interactions with other protein
           partners. LIM domains are 50-60 amino acids in size and
           share two characteristic highly conserved zinc finger
           motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved
           residues, mostly cysteines and histidines, which

>gnl|CDD|188738 cd09352, LIM1_Ajuba_like, The first LIM domain of Ajuba-like
          proteins.  The first LIM domain of Ajuba-like proteins:
          Ajuba like LIM protein family includes three highly
          homologous proteins Ajuba, Limd1, and WTIP. Members of
          the family contain three tandem C-terminal LIM domains
          and a proline-rich N-terminal region. This family of
          proteins functions as scaffolds, participating in the
          assembly of numerous protein complexes. In the
          cytoplasm, Ajuba binds Grb2 to modulate
          serum-stimulated ERK activation. Ajuba also recruits
          the TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) to p62 and
          activates PKCKappa activity. Ajuba interacts with
          alpha-catenin and F-actin to contribute to the
          formation or stabilization of adheren junctions by
          linking adhesive receptors to the actin cytoskeleton.
          Although Ajuba is a cytoplasmic protein, it can shuttle
          into the nucleus. In nucleus, Ajuba functions as a
          corepressor for the zinc finger-protein Snail. It binds
          to the SNAG repression domain of Snail through its LIM
          region.  Arginine methyltransferase-5 (Prmt5), a
          protein in the complex, is recruited to Snai l through
          an interaction with Ajuba. This ternary complex
          functions to repress E-cadherin, a Snail target gene.
          In addition, Ajuba contains functional nuclear-receptor
          interacting motifs and selectively interacts with
          retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and rexinoid receptor
          (RXRs) to negatively regulate retinoic acid signaling.
          Wtip, the Wt1-interacting protein, was originally
          identified as an interaction partner of the Wilms
          tumour protein 1 (WT1). Wtip is involved in kidney and
          neural crest development. Wtip interacts with the
          receptor tyrosine kinase Ror2 and inhibits canonical
          Wnt signaling. LIMD1 was reported to inhibit cell
          growth and metastases. The inhibition may be mediated
          through an interaction with the protein
          barrier-to-autointegration (BAF), a component of
          SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling protein; or through the
          interaction with retinoblastoma protein (pRB),
          resulting in inhibition of E2F-mediated transcription,
          and expression of the majority of genes with E2F1-
          responsive elements. Recently, Limd1 was shown to
          interact with the p62/sequestosome protein and
          influence IL-1 and RANKL signaling by facilitating the
          assembly of a p62/TRAF6/a-PKC multi-protein complex.
          The Limd1-p62 interaction affects both NF-kappaB and
          AP-1 activity in epithelial cells and osteoclasts.
          Moreover, LIMD1 functions as tumor repressor to block
          lung tumor cell line in vitro and in vivo. Recent
          studies revealed that LIM proteins Wtip, LIMD1 and
          Ajuba interact with components of RNA induced silencing
          complexes (RISC) as well as eIF4E and the mRNA m7GTP
          cap-protein complex and are required for
          microRNA-mediated gene silencing.  As in other LIM
          domains, this domain family is 50-60 amino acids in
          size and shares two characteristic zinc finger motifs.
          The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved residues,
          mostly cysteines and histidines, which coordinately
          bond to two zinc atoms. LIM domains function as

>gnl|CDD|188747 cd09361, LIM1_Enigma_like, The first LIM domain of Enigma-like
          family.  The first LIM domain of Enigma-like family:
          The Enigma LIM domain family is comprised of three
          members: Enigma, ENH, and Cypher (mouse)/ZASP (human).
          These subfamily members contain a single PDZ domain at
          the N-terminus and three LIM domains at the C-terminus.
          Enigma was initially characterized in humans and is
          expressed in multiple tissues, such as skeletal muscle,
          heart, bone, and brain. The third LIM domain
          specifically interacts with the insulin receptor and
          the second LIM domain interacts with the receptor
          tyrosine kinase Ret and the adaptor protein APS.  Thus
          Enigma is implicated in signal transduction processes,
          such as mitogenic activity, insulin related actin
          organization, and glucose metabolism. The second
          member, ENH protein, was first identified in rat brain.
          It has been shown that ENH interacts with protein
          kinase D1 (PKD1) via its LIM domains and forms a
          complex with PKD1 and the alpha1C subunit of cardiac

          cardiomyocytes. The N-terminal PDZ domain interacts
          with alpha-actinin at the Z-line. ZASP/Cypher is
          required for maintenance of Z-line structure during
          muscle contraction, but not required for Z-line
          assembly. In heart, Cypher/ZASP plays a structural role
          through its interaction with cytoskeletal Z-line
          proteins. In addition, there is increasing evidence
          that Cypher/ZASP also performs signaling functions.
          Studies reveal that Cypher/ZASP interacts with and
          directs PKC to the Z-line, where PKC phosphorylates
          downstream signaling targets. LIM domains are 50-60
          amino acids in size and share two characteristic zinc
          finger motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight

          which coordinately bond to two zinc atoms. LIM domains
          function as adaptors or scaffolds to support the
          assembly of multimeric protein complexes.

>gnl|CDD|188847 cd09463, LIM1_LIMK2, The first LIM domain of LIMK2 (LIM domain
          Kinase 2).  The first LIM domain of LIMK2 (LIM domain
          Kinase 2): LIMK2 is a member of the LIMK protein
          family, which comprises LIMK1 and LIMK2. LIMK contains
          two LIM domains, a PDZ domain, and a kinase domain.
          LIMK is involved in the regulation of actin
          polymerization and microtubule disassembly. LIMK
          influences architecture of the actin cytoskeleton by
          regulating the activity of the cofilin family proteins
          cofilin1, cofilin2, and destrin. The mechanism of the
          activation is to phosphorylates cofilin on serine 3 and
          inactivates its actin-severing activity, altering the
          rate of actin depolymerization. LIMK activity is
          activated by phosphorylation of a threonine residue
          within the activation loop of the kinase by
          p21-activated kinases 1 and 4 and by Rho kinase. LIMKs
          can function in both cytoplasm and nucleus. Both LIMK1
          and LIMK2 can act in the nucleus to suppress
          Rac/Cdc42-dependent cyclin D1 expression. LIMK2 is
          expressed in all tissues. While LIMK1 localizes mainly
          at focal adhesions, LIMK2 is found in cytoplasmic
          punctae, suggesting that they may have different
          cellular functions. The activity of LIM kinase 2 to
          regulate cofilin phosphorylation is inhibited by the
          direct binding of Par-3. LIMK2 activation promotes cell
          cycle progression. The phenotype of Limk2 knockout mice
          shows a defect in spermatogenesis. The LIM domains have
          been shown to play an important role in regulating
          kinase activity and likely also contribute to LIMK
          function by acting as sites of protein-to-protein
          interactions. All LIM domains are 50-60 amino acids in
          size and share two characteristic zinc finger motifs.
          The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved residues,
          mostly cysteines and histidines, which coordinately
          bond to two zinc atoms. LIM domains function as

>gnl|CDD|188750 cd09364, LIM1_LIMK, The first LIM domain of LIMK (LIM domain
          Kinase ).  The first LIM domain of LIMK (LIM domain
          Kinase ): LIMK protein family is  comprised of two
          members LIMK1 and LIMK2. LIMK contains two LIM domains,
          a PDZ domain and a kinase domain. LIMK is involved in
          the regulation of actin polymerization and microtubule
          disassembly. LIMK influences architecture of the actin
          cytoskeleton by regulating the activity of the cofilin
          family proteins cofilin1, cofilin2, and destrin. The
          mechanism of the activation is to phosphorylates
          cofilin on serine 3 and inactivates its actin-severing
          activity, and altering the rate of actin
          depolymerisation. LIMKs can function in both cytoplasm
          and nucleus and are expressed in all tissues. Both
          LIMK1 and LIMK2 can act in the nucleus to suppress
          Rac/Cdc42-dependent cyclin D1 expression. However,
          LIMK1 and LIMk2 have different cellular locations.
          While LIMK1 localizes mainly at focal adhesions, LIMK2
          is found in cytoplasmic punctae, suggesting that they
          may have different cellular functions. The LIM domains
          of LIMK have been shown to play an important role in
          regulating kinase activity and likely also contribute
          to LIMK function by acting as sites of
          protein-to-protein interactions. All LIM domains are
          50-60 amino acids in size and share two characteristic
          zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight
          conserved residues, mostly cysteines and histidines,
          which coordinately bond to two zinc atoms. LIM domains
          function as adaptors or scaffolds to support the
          assembly of multimeric protein complexes.

          regulating diverse functions in cell adhesion, growth,
          and differentiation through LIM-mediated
          protein-protein interactions. PINCH comprises an array
          of five LIM domains that interact with integrin-linked
          kinase (ILK), Nck2 (also called Nckbeta or Grb4) and
          other interaction partners.  These interactions are

          only protein 4).  The second LIM domain of LMO4 (LIM
          domain only protein 4): LMO4 is a nuclear protein that
          plays important roles in transcriptional regulation and
          development. LMO4 is involved in various functions in
          tumorigenesis and cellular differentiation. LMO4
          proteins regulate gene expression by interacting with a
          wide variety of transcription factors and cofactors to
          form large transcription complexes. It can interact
          with Smad proteins, and associate with the promoter of
          the PAI-1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor-1) gene in a
          TGFbeta (transforming growth factor beta)-dependent
          manner. LMO4 can also form a complex with transcription
          regulator CREB (cAMP response element-binding protein)
          and interact with CLIM1 and CLIM2. In breast tissue,
          LMO4 interacts with multiple proteins, including the
          cofactor CtIP [CtBP (C-terminal binding
          protein)-interacting protein], the breast and ovarian
          tumor suppressor BRCA1 (breast-cancer susceptibility
          gene 1) and the LIM-domain-binding protein LDB1.
          Functionally, LMO4 is shown to repress BRCA1-mediated
          transcription activation, thus invoking a potential
          role for LMO4 as a negative regulator of BRCA1 in
          sporadic breast cancer.  LMO4 also forms complex to
          both ERa (oestrogen receptor alpha), MTA1 (metastasis
          tumor antigen 1), and HDACs (histone deacetylases),
          implying that LMO4 is also a component of the MTA1
          corepressor complex. Over-expressed LMO4 represses ERa
          transactivation functions in an HDAC-dependent manner,
          and contributes to the process of breast cancer
          progression by allowing the development of Era-negative
          phenotypes. All LIM domains are 50-60 amino acids in

          ZASP was identified in human heart and skeletal muscle
          and Cypher is a mice ortholog of ZASP. ZASP/Cyppher
          contains three LIM domains at the C-terminus and a PDZ
          domain at N-terminus.  ZASP/Cypher is required for
          maintenance of Z-line structure during muscle
          contraction, but not required for Z-line assembly. In
          heart, Cypher/ZASP plays a structural role through its

          classified into the ALP subfamily of LIM domain
          proteins. Each member of the subfamily contains an

          The Enigma LIM domain family is comprised of three
          members: Enigma, ENH, and Cypher (mouse)/ZASP (human).
          These subfamily members contain a single PDZ domain at
          the N-terminus and three LIM domains at the C-terminus.
          Enigma was initially characterized in humans and is
          expressed in multiple tissues, such as skeletal muscle,
          heart, bone and brain. The third LIM domain
          specifically interacts with the insulin receptor and
          the second LIM domain interacts with the receptor
          tyrosine kinase Ret and the adaptor protein APS.  Thus
          Enigma is implicated in signal transduction processes,
          such as mitogenic activity, insulin related actin
          organization, and glucose metabolism. The second
          member, ENH protein, was first identified in rat brain.
           It has been shown that ENH interacts with protein
          kinase D1 (PKD1) via its LIM domains and forms a
          complex with PKD1 and the alpha1C subunit of cardiac
          L-type voltage-gated calcium channel in rat neonatal
          cardiomyocytes. The N-terminal PDZ domain interacts
          with alpha-actinin at the Z-line. ZASP/Cypher is
          required for maintenance of Z-line structure during
          muscle contraction, but not required for Z-line
          assembly. In heart, Cypher/ZASP plays a structural role

          expressed in male germ cells.  FHL proteins exert their
          roles as transcription co-activators or co-repressors
          through a wide array of interaction partners. For
          example, FHL1 binds to Myosin-binding protein C,

          paxillin like protein family.  The second LIM domain of
          the paxillin like protein family: This family consists
          of paxillin, leupaxin, Hic-5 (ARA55), and other related
          proteins. There are four LIM domains in the C-terminal
          of the proteins and leucine-rich LD-motifs in the
          N-terminal region.  Members of this family are adaptor
          proteins to recruit key components of
          signal-transduction machinery to specific sub-cellular
          locations. Paxillin is found at the interface between
          the plasma membrane and the actin cytoskeleton.
          Paxillin serves as a platform for the recruitment of
          numerous regulatory and structural proteins that
          together control the dynamic changes in cell adhesion,
          cytoskeletal reorganization and gene expression that
          are necessary for cell migration and survival. Leupaxin
          is a cytoskeleton adaptor protein, which is
          preferentially expressed in hematopoietic cells. It
          associates with focal adhesion kinases PYK2 and
          pp125FAK and identified to be a component of the
          osteoclast pososomal signaling complex. Hic-5 controls
          cell proliferation, migration and senescence by
          functioning as coactivator for steroid receptors such
          as androgen receptor, glucocorticoid receptor and
          progesterone receptor. LIM domains are 50-60 amino
          acids in size and share two characteristic zinc finger
          motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved
          residues, mostly cysteines and histidines, which
          coordinately bond to two zinc atoms. LIM domains

          of the abLIM protein family have been identified;
          abLIM-1, abLIM-2 and abLIM-3. The N-terminal of abLIM
          consists of four tandem repeats of LIM domains and the
          C-terminal of acting binding LIM protein is a villin
          headpiece domain, which has strong actin binding
          activity. The abLIM-1, which is expressed in retina,
          brain, and muscle tissue, has been indicated to
          function as a tumor suppressor. AbLIM-2 and -3, mainly
          expressed in muscle and neuronal tissue, bind to
          F-actin strongly.  They may serve as a scaffold for
          signaling modules of the actin cytoskeleton and thereby
          modulate transcription. It has shown that LIM domains
          of abLIMs interact with STARS (striated muscle
          activator of Rho signaling), which directly binds actin
          and stimulates serum-response factor (SRF)-dependent
          transcription. All LIM domains are 50-60 amino acids in

>gnl|CDD|188846 cd09462, LIM1_LIMK1, The first LIM domain of LIMK1 (LIM domain
           Kinase 1).  The first LIM domain of LIMK1 (LIM domain
           Kinase 1): LIMK1 belongs to the LIMK protein family,
           which comprises LIMK1 and LIMK2. LIMK contains two LIM
           domains, a PDZ domain, and a kinase domain. LIMK is
           involved in the regulation of actin polymerization and
           microtubule disassembly. LIMK influences architecture of
           the actin cytoskeleton by regulating the activity of the
           cofilin family proteins cofilin1, cofilin2, and destrin.
           The mechanism of the activation is to phosphorylates
           cofilin on serine 3 and inactivates its actin-severing
           activity, and altering the rate of actin
           depolymerization. LIMKs can function in both cytoplasm
           and nucleus. Both LIMK1 and LIMK2 can act in the nucleus
           to suppress Rac/Cdc42-dependent cyclin D1 expression.
           LIMK1 is expressed in all tissues and is localized to
           focal adhesions in the cell. LIMK1 can form homodimers
           upon binding of HSP90 and is activated by Rho effector
           Rho kinase and MAPKAPK2. LIMK1 is important for normal
           central nervous system development, and its deletion has
           been implicated in the development of the human genetic
           disorder Williams syndrome. Moreover, LIMK1 up-regulates
           the promoter activity of urokinase type plasminogen
           activator and induces its mRNA and protein expression in
           breast cancer cells. The LIM domains have been shown to
           play an important role in regulating kinase activity and
           likely also contribute to LIMK function by acting as
           sites of protein-to-protein interactions. All LIM
           domains are 50-60 amino acids in size and share two
           characteristic zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers

>gnl|CDD|188741 cd09355, LIM2_Ajuba_like, The second LIM domain of Ajuba-like
          proteins.  The second LIM domain of Ajuba-like
          proteins: Ajuba like LIM protein family includes three
          highly homologous proteins Ajuba, Limd1, and WTIP.
          Members of the family contain three tandem C-terminal
          LIM domains and a proline-rich N-terminal region. This
          family of proteins functions as scaffolds,
          participating in the assembly of numerous protein
          complexes. In the cytoplasm, Ajuba binds Grb2 to
          modulate serum-stimulated ERK activation. Ajuba also
          recruits the TNF receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6)
          to p62 and activates PKCKappa activity. Ajuba interacts
          with alpha-catenin and F-actin to contribute to the
          formation or stabilization of adheren junctions by
          linking adhesive receptors to the actin cytoskeleton.
          Although Ajuba is a cytoplasmic protein, it can shuttle
          into the nucleus. In nucleus, Ajuba functions as a
          corepressor for the zinc finger-protein Snail. It binds
          to the SNAG repression domain of Snail through its LIM
          region.  Arginine methyltransferase-5 (Prmt5), a
          protein in the complex, is recruited to Snai l through
          an interaction with Ajuba. This ternary complex
          functions to repress E-cadherin, a Snail target gene.
          In addition, Ajuba contains functional nuclear-receptor
          interacting motifs and selectively interacts with
          retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and rexinoid receptor
          (RXRs) to negatively regulate retinoic acid signaling.
          Wtip, the Wt1-interacting protein, was originally
          identified as an interaction partner of the Wilms
          tumour protein 1 (WT1). Wtip is involved in kidney and
          neural crest development. Wtip interacts with the
          receptor tyrosine kinase Ror2 and inhibits canonical
          Wnt signaling. LIMD1 was reported to inhibit cell
          growth and metastases. The inhibition may be mediated
          through an interaction with the protein
          barrier-to-autointegration (BAF), a component of
          SWI/SNF chromatin-remodeling protein; or through the
          interaction with retinoblastoma protein (pRB),
          resulting in inhibition of E2F-mediated transcription,
          and expression of the majority of genes with E2F1-
          responsive elements. Recently, Limd1 was shown to
          interact with the p62/sequestosome protein and
          influence IL-1 and RANKL signaling by facilitating the
          assembly of a p62/TRAF6/a-PKC multi-protein complex.
          The Limd1-p62 interaction affects both NF-kappaB and
          AP-1 activity in epithelial cells and osteoclasts.
          Moreover, LIMD1 functions as tumor repressor to block
          lung tumor cell line in vitro and in vivo. Recent
          studies revealed that LIM proteins Wtip, LIMD1 and
          Ajuba interact with components of RNA induced silencing
          complexes (RISC) as well as eIF4E and the mRNA m7GTP
          cap-protein complex and are required for
          microRNA-mediated gene silencing.  As in other LIM
          domains, this domain family is 50-60 amino acids in
          size and shares two characteristic zinc finger motifs.
          The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved residues,
          mostly cysteines and histidines, which coordinately
          bond to two zinc atoms. LIM domains function as
          adaptors or scaffolds to support the assembly of

          protein, which recruits key components of the
          signal-transduction machinery to specific sub-cellular
          locations to respond to environmental changes rapidly.
          The C-terminal region of paxillin contains four LIM
          domains which target paxillin to focal adhesions,
          presumably through a direct association with the
          cytoplasmic tail of beta-integrin. The N-terminal of
          paxillin is leucine-rich LD-motifs. Paxillin is found
          at the interface between the plasma membrane and the
          actin cytoskeleton. The binding partners of paxillin
          are diverse and include protein tyrosine kinases, such
          as Src and FAK, structural proteins, such as vinculin
          and actopaxin, and regulators of actin organization.
          Paxillin recruits these proteins to their function
          sites to control the dynamic changes in cell adhesion,

          family, which features two tandem N-terminal LIM
          domains and a C-terminal DNA binding homeodomain.
          Members of LHX family are found in the nucleus and act
          as transcription factors or cofactors. LHX proteins are
          critical for the development of specialized cells in
          multiple tissue types, including the nervous system,
          skeletal muscle, the heart, the kidneys, and endocrine
          organs, such as the pituitary gland and the pancreas.
          Mouse Lmx1a is expressed in multiple tissues, including
          the roof plate of the neural tube, the developing
          brain, the otic vesicles, the notochord, and the
          pancreas. Human Lmx1a can be found in pancreas,
          skeletal muscle, adipose tissue, developing brain,
          mammary glands, and pituitary.  The functions of Lmx1a
          in the developing nervous system were revealed by
          studies of mutant mouse. In mouse, mutations in Lmx1a
          result in failure of the roof plate to develop.  Lmx1a
          may act upstream of other roof plate markers such as
          MafB, Gdf7, Bmp 6, and Bmp7. Further characterization
          of these mice reveals numerous defects including
          disorganized cerebellum, hippocampus, and cortex;
          altered pigmentation; female sterility; skeletal
          defects; and behavioral abnormalities. Within
          pancreatic cells, the Lmx1a protein interacts

          proteins:  This family includes the LIM domains of TLP
          and CRIP (Cysteine-Rich Intestinal Protein). TLP is the
          distant member of the CRP family of proteins. TLP has
          two isomers (TLP-A and TLP-B) and sharing approximately
          30% with each of the three other CRPs.  Like CRP1, CRP2
          and CRP3/MLP, TLP has two LIM domains, connected by a
          flexible linker region. Unlike the CRPs, TLP lacks the
          nuclear targeting signal (K/R-K/R-Y-G-P-K) and is
          localized solely in the cytoplasm. TLP is specifically
          expressed in the thymus in a subset of cortical
          epithelial cells.  TLP has a role in development of
          normal thymus and in controlling the development and

          family, which features two tandem N-terminal LIM

          organs, such as the pituitary gland and the pancreas.
          Lhx3a is one of the two isoforms of Lhx3. The Lhx3 gene
          is expressed in the ventral spinal cord, the pons, the
          medulla oblongata, and the pineal gland of the
          developing nervous system during mouse embryogenesis,

          gland. Lhx3 functions in concert with other
          transcription factors to specify interneuron and motor
          neuron fates during development. Lhx3 proteins have
          been demonstrated to directly bind to the promoters of
          several pituitary hormone gene promoters. The Lhx3 gene
          encodes two isoforms, LHX3a and LHX3b that differ in
          their amino-terminal sequences, where Lhx3a has longer
          N-terminal.  They show differential activation of
          pituitary hormone genes and distinct DNA binding

          alpha-glycoprotein subunit promoter and genes
          containing a high-affinity Lhx3 binding site more
          effectively than the hLhx3b isoform. In addition,

>gnl|CDD|188749 cd09363, LIM3_Enigma_like, The third LIM domain of Enigma-like
          family.  The third LIM domain of Enigma-like family:
          The Enigma LIM domain family is comprised of three
          members: Enigma, ENH, and Cypher (mouse)/ZASP (human).
          These subfamily members contain a single PDZ domain at
          the N-terminus and three LIM domains at the C-terminus.
          Enigma was initially characterized in humans and is
          expressed in multiple tissues, such as skeletal muscle,
          heart, bone, and brain. The third LIM domain
          specifically interacts with the insulin receptor and
          the second LIM domain interacts with the receptor
          tyrosine kinase Ret and the adaptor protein APS.  Thus
          Enigma is implicated in signal transduction processes,
          such as mitogenic activity, insulin related actin
          organization, and glucose metabolism. The second
          member, ENH protein, was first identified in rat brain.
           It has been shown that ENH interacts with protein
          kinase D1 (PKD1) via its LIM domains and forms a
          complex with PKD1 and the alpha1C subunit of cardiac
          L-type voltage-gated calcium channel in rat neonatal
          cardiomyocytes. The N-terminal PDZ domain interacts
          with alpha-actinin at the Z-line. ZASP/Cypher is
          required for maintenance of Z-line structure during
          muscle contraction, but not required for Z-line
          assembly. In heart, Cypher/ZASP plays a structural role
          through its interaction with cytoskeletal Z-line
          proteins. In addition, there is increasing evidence
          that Cypher/ZASP also performs signaling functions.
          Studies reveal that Cypher/ZASP interacts with and
          directs PKC to the Z-line, where PKC phosphorylates
          downstream signaling targets. LIM domains are 50-60
          amino acids in size and share two characteristic zinc
          finger motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight
          conserved residues, mostly cysteines and histidines,
          which coordinately bond to two zinc atoms. LIM domains
          function as adaptors or scaffolds to support the
          assembly of multimeric protein complexes.

          family, which features two tandem N-terminal LIM
          domains and a C-terminal DNA binding homeodomain.
          Members of LHX family are found in the nucleus and act
          as transcription factors or cofactors. LHX proteins are
          critical for the development of specialized cells in
          multiple tissue types, including the nervous system,
          skeletal muscle, the heart, the kidneys, and endocrine
          organs, such as the pituitary gland and the pancreas.
          In mouse, Lmx1b functions in the developing limbs and
          eyes, the kidneys, the brain, and in cranial
          mesenchyme. The disruption of Lmx1b gene results kidney
          and limb defects. In the brain, Lmx1b is important for
          generation of mesencephalic dopamine neurons and the
          differentiation of serotonergic neurons. In the mouse
          eye, Lmx1b regulates anterior segment (cornea, iris,
          ciliary body, trabecular meshwork, and lens)
          development. As in other LIM domains, this domain
          family is 50-60 amino acids in size and shares two

           protein with unknown function.  The members of this

           Protein Lost in Neoplasm is a cytoskeleton-associated
           tumor suppressor whose expression inversely correlates
           with cell growth, motility, invasion and cancer
           mortality.  Eplin interacts and stabilizes F-actin
           filaments and stress fibers, which correlates with its
           ability to suppress anchorage independent growth. In
           epithelial cells, Eplin is required for formation of the
           F-actin adhesion belt by binding to the
           E-cadherin-catenin complex through alpha-catenin. Eplin
           is expressed in two isoforms, a longer Eplin-beta and a
           shorter Eplin-alpha. Eplin-alpha mRNA is detected in
           various tissues and cell lines, but is absent or down
           regulated in cancer cells. Xirp2 contains a LIM domain
           and Xin re peats for binding to and stabilising F-actin.
           Xirp2 is expressed in muscles and is significantly
           induced in the heart in response to systemic
           administration of angiotensin II. Xirp2 is an important
           effector of the Ang II signaling pathway in the heart.

           factor (MEF)2A, whose  transcriptional activity is

          LIM domain, an extensive proline-rich domain and a
          nuclear export signal.  Localized at sites of cell
          substratum adhesion in fibroblasts, Zyxin interacts
          with alpha-actinin, members of the cysteine-rich
          protein (CRP) family, proteins that display Src
          homology 3 (SH3) domains and Ena/VASP family members.
          Zyxin and its partners have been implicated in the
          spatial control of actin filament assembly as well as
          in pathways important for cell differentiation. In
          addition to its functions at focal adhesion plaques,
          recent work has shown that zyxin moves from the sites
          of cell contacts to the nucleus, where it directly
          participates in the regulation of gene expression. As
          in other LIM domains, this domain family is 50-60 amino
          acids in size and shares two characteristic zinc finger
          motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved
          residues, mostly cysteines and histidines, which

          preferred partner (LPP): LPP is a member of the zyxin
          LIM protein family and contains three LIM zinc-binding
          domains at the C-terminal and proline-rich region at
          the N-terminal.  LPP initially identified as the most
          frequent translocation partner of HMGA2 (High Mobility
          Group A2) in a subgroup of benign tumors of adipose
          tissue (lipomas). It was also shown to be rearranged in
          a number of other soft tissues, as well as in a case of
          acute monoblastic leukemia. In addition to its
          involvement in tumors, LPP was inedited as a smooth
          muscle restricted LIM protein that plays an important
          role in SMC migration. LPP is localized at sites of
          cell adhesion, cell-cell contacts and transiently in
          the nucleus. In nucleus, it acts as a coactivator for
          the ETS domain transcription factor PEA3. In addition
          to PEA3, it interacts with alpha-actinin,vasodilator
          stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP),Palladin, and Scrib.

          elements and that the proline- rich region, which
          harbors binding sites for alpha-actinin and

           developing mouse brain, the spinal cord, the pancreas,
           in limb mesenchyme, and in the urogenital region. Lhx9
           plays critical roles in gonad development.  Homozygous
           mice lacking functional Lhx9 alleles exhibit numerous
           urogenital defects, such as gonadal agenesis,

          The LHX3 and LHX4 LIM-homeodomain transcription factors
          play essential roles in pituitary gland and nervous
          system development. Although LHX3 and LHX4 share marked

          patterns. They play overlapping, but distinct functions
          during the establishment of the specialized cells of
          the mammalian pituitary gland and the nervous system.
          Lhx3 proteins have been demonstrated the ability to
          directly bind to the promoters/enhancers of several
          pituitary hormone gene promoters to cause increased
          transcription. Lhx3a and Lhx3b, whose mRNAs have
          distinct temporal expression profiles during
          development, are two isoforms of Lhx3. LHX4 plays
          essential roles in pituitary gland and nervous system
          development. In mice, the lhx4 gene is expressed in the
          developing hindbrain, cerebral cortex, pituitary gland,
          and spinal cord. LHX4 shows significant sequence
          similarity to LHX3, particularly to isoforms Lhx3a. In

           markers such as MafB, Gdf7, Bmp6, and Bmp7. Further
           characterization of these mice reveals numerous defects
           including disorganized cerebellum, hippocampus, and
           cortex; altered pigmentation; female sterility, skeletal
           defects, and behavioral abnormalities.  In the mouse,
           Lmx1b functions in the developing limbs and eyes, the
           kidneys, the brain, and in cranial mesenchyme. The
           disruption of Lmx1b gene results kidney and limb
           defects. In the brain, Lmx1b is important for generation
           of mesencephalic dopamine neurons and the
           differentiation of serotonergic neurons. In the mouse
           eye, Lmx1b regulates anterior segment (cornea, iris,
           ciliary body, trabecular meshwork, and lens)
           development. As in other LIM domains, this domain family
           is 50-60 amino acids in size and shares two
           characteristic zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers

           cytosolic protein with a single LIM domain, a calponin
           homology (CH) domain and a flavoprotein monooxygenase
           domain. In Drosophila, MICAL is expressed in axons,
           interacts with the neuronal A (PlexA)  receptor and is
           required for Semapho-rin 1a (Sema-1a)-PlexA-mediated
           repulsive axon guidance.  The LIM domain and calporin
           homology domain are known for interactions with the
           cytoskeleton, cytoskeletal adaptor proteins, and other
           signaling proteins. The flavoprotein monooxygenase (MO)
           is required for semaphorin-plexin repulsive axon
           guidance during axonal pathfinding in the Drosophila
           neuromuscular system. In addition, MICAL was
           characterized to interact with Rab13 and Rab8 to
           coordinate the assembly of tight junctions and adherens
           junctions in epithelial cells. Thus, MICAL was also

          of the abLIM protein family have been identified;
          abLIM-1, abLIM-2 and abLIM-3. The N-terminal of abLIM
          consists of four tandem repeats of LIM domains and the
          C-terminal of acting binding LIM protein is a villin

          CLP36 contains a C-terminal LIM domain and an
          N-terminal PDZ domain. CLP36 is highly expressed in
          heart and is present in many other tissues including
          lung, liver, spleen, and blood. CLP36 has been
          implicated in many processes including hypoxia and

          with alpha-actinin-2 at the Z-lines in myocardium. In
          addition, CLP36 binds to alpha-actinin-1 and
          alpha-actinin-4, and associates with F-actin filaments
          and stress fibers. CLP36 might be involved in not only
          the function of sarcomeres in muscle cells, but also in
          actin stress fiber-mediated cellular processes, such as
          cell shape, migration, polarit, and cytokinesis in

          glycine-rich repeats (GRRs). The CRP family members
          include CRP1, CRP2, CRP3/MLP. CRP1, CRP2 and CRP3 share
          a conserved nuclear targeting signal (K/R-K/R-Y-G-P-K),
          which supports the fact that these proteins function
          not only in the cytoplasm but also in the nucleus. CRPs

          differentiation, and involve in complex transcription
          control, and the organization as well as the
          arrangement of the myofibrillar/cytoskeletal network.
          It is evident that CRP1, CRP2, and CRP3/MLP are
          involved in promoting protein assembly along the
          actin-based cytoskeleton. Although members of the CRP

          homeodomain. Isl1 and Isl2 are the two conserved
          members of this family. Proteins in this group are

>gnl|CDD|173681 cd05590, STKc_nPKC_eta, Catalytic domain of the Protein
           Serine/Threonine Kinase, Novel Protein Kinase C eta.
           Serine/Threonine Kinases (STKs), Novel Protein Kinase C
           (nPKC), eta isoform, catalytic (c) domain. STKs catalyze
           the transfer of the gamma-phosphoryl group from ATP to
           serine/threonine residues on protein substrates. The
           nPKC subfamily is part of a larger superfamily that
           includes the catalytic domains of other protein STKs,
           protein tyrosine kinases, RIO kinases, aminoglycoside
           phosphotransferase, choline kinase, and phosphoinositide
           3-kinase. PKCs are classified into three groups
           (classical, atypical, and novel) depending on their mode
           of activation and the structural characteristics of
           their regulatory domain. nPKCs are calcium-independent,
           but require DAG (1,2-diacylglycerol) and
           phosphatidylserine (PS) for activity. There are four
           nPKC isoforms, delta, epsilon, eta, and theta. PKC-eta
           is predominantly expressed in squamous epithelia, where
           it plays a crucial role in the signaling of cell-type
           specific differentiation. It is also expressed in pro-B
           cells and early-stage thymocytes, and acts as a key
           regulator in early B-cell development. PKC-eta increases
           glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) proliferation and
           resistance to radiation, and is being developed as a
           therapeutic target for the management of GBM.
