>gnl|CDD|188788 cd09404, LIM1_MLP84B_like, The LIM domain of Mlp84B and Mlp60A.
          The LIM domain of Mlp84B and Mlp60A: Mlp84B and Mlp60A
          belong to the CRP LIM domain protein family. The Mlp84B
          protein contains five copies of the LIM domains, each
          followed by a Glycin Rich Region (GRR). However, only
          the first LIM domain of Mlp84B is in this family.
          Mlp60A exhibits only one LIM domain linked to a
          glycin-rich region. Mlp84B and Mlp60A are muscle
          specific proteins and have been implicated in muscle
          differentiation. While Mlp84B transcripts are enriched
          at the terminal ends of muscle fibers, Mlp60A
          transcripts are found throughout the muscle fibers. 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.

>gnl|CDD|188712 cd09326, LIM_CRP_like, The LIM domains of Cysteine Rich Protein
          (CRP) family.  The LIM domains of Cysteine Rich Protein
          (CRP) family: Cysteine-rich proteins (CRPs) are
          characterized by the presence of two LIM domains linked
          to a short glycine-rich repeats (GRRs). The known CRP
          family members include CRP1, CRP2, and 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 control regulatory pathways
          during cellular differentiation, and involve in complex
          transcription control, and the organization as well as
          the arrangement of the myofibrillar/cytoskeletal
          network. CRP1, CRP2, and CRP3/MLP are involved in
          promoting protein assembly along the actin-based
          cytoskeleton. 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

>gnl|CDD|188785 cd09401, LIM_TLP_like, The  LIM domains of thymus LIM protein
          (TLP).  The LIM domain of thymus LIM protein (TLP) like
          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
          differentiation of thymic epithelial cells. CRIP is a
          short LIM protein with only one LIM domain. CRIP gene
          is developmentally regulated and can be induced by
          glucocorticoid hormones during the first three
          postnatal weeks. The domain shows close sequence
          homology to LIM domain of thymus LIM protein. However,
          unlike the TLP proteins which have two LIM domains, the
          members of this family have only one LIM domain. LIM
          domains are 50-60 amino acids in size and share two

          Protein 2 (CRP2): The CRP family members include CRP1,
          CRP2, CRP3/MLP and TLP. CRP1, CRP2 and CRP3 share a
          conserved nuclear targeting signal (K/R-K/R-Y-G-P-K),

          differentiation, and involve in complex transcription
          circuits, and the organization as well as the
          arrangement of the myofibrillar/cytoskeletal network.
          CRP2 specifically binds to protein inhibitor of
          activated STAT-1 (PIAS1) and a novel human protein
          designed CRP2BP (for CRP2 binding partner). PIAS1
          specifically inhibits the STAT-1 pathway and CRP2BP is
          homologous to members of the histone acetyltransferase
          family raising the possibility that CRP2 is a modulator
          of cytokine-controlled pathways or is functionally
          active in the transcriptional regulatory network. LIM

>gnl|CDD|188830 cd09446, LIM_N_RAP, The LIM domain of N-RAP.  The LIM domain of
          N-RAP:  N-RAP is a muscle-specific protein concentrated
          at myotendinous junctions in skeletal muscle and
          intercalated disks in cardiac muscle. LIM domain is
          found at the N-terminus of N-RAP and the C-terminal of
          N-RAP contains a region with multiple of nebulin
          repeats. N-RAP functions as a scaffolding protein that
          organizes alpha-actinin and actin into symmetrical
          I-Z-I structures in developing myofibrils. Nebulin
          repeat is known as actin binding domain. The N-RAP is
          hypothesized to form antiparallel dimerization via its
          LIM domain. 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.

           The LIM domain of LIM and SH3 Protein (LASP):  LASP
           family contains two highly homologous members, LASP-1
           and LASP-2. LASP contains a LIM motif at its amino
           terminus, a src homology 3 (SH3) domains at its
           C-terminal part, and a nebulin-like region in the
           middle. LASP-1 and -2 are highly conserved in their LIM,
           nebulin-like, and SH3 domains ,but differ significantly
           at their linker regions. Both proteins are ubiquitously
           expressed and involved in cytoskeletal architecture,
           especially in the organization of focal adhesions.
           LASP-1 and LASP-2, are important during early embryo-
           and fetogenesis and are highly expressed in the central
           nervous system of the adult. However, only LASP-1 seems
           to participate significantly in neuronal differentiation
           and plays an important functional role in migration and
           proliferation of certain cancer cells while the role of
           LASP-2 is more structural. The expression of LASP-1 in
           breast tumors is increased significantly. As in other
           LIM domains, this domain family is 50-60 amino acids in

          LIM domain of Zyxin: Zyxin exhibits three copies of the
          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

           family.  The first LIM domain of Lhx2 and Lhx9 family:
           Lhx2 and Lhx9 are highly homologous LHX regulatory
           proteins. They belong to the LHX protein 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.  Although Lhx2 and
           Lhx9 are highly homologous, they seems to play
           regulatory roles in different organs.  In animals, Lhx2
           plays important roles in eye, cerebral cortex, limb, the
           olfactory organs, and erythrocyte development. Lhx2 gene
           knockout mice exhibit impaired patterning of the
           cortical hem and the telencephalon of the developing
           brain, and a lack of development in olfactory
           structures. Lhx9 is expressed in several regions of the
           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,
           infertility, and undetectable levels of testosterone and
           estradiol coupled with high FSH levels. Lhx9 null mice
           are phenotypically female, even those that are
           genotypically male. As in other LIM domains, this domain

           domain of Lhx9: Lhx9 belongs to the LHX protein 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. Lhx9 is highly
           homologous to Lhx2. It is expressed in several regions
           of the 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,
           infertility, and undetectable levels of testosterone and
           estradiol coupled with high FSH levels. Lhx9 null mice
           have reduced levels of the Sf1 nuclear receptor that is
           required for gonadogenesis, and recent studies have
           shown that Lhx9 is able to activate the Sf1/FtzF1 gene.
           Lhx9 null mice are phenotypically female, even those
           that are genotypically male.  As in other LIM domains,
           this domain family is 50-60 amino acids in size and

>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

           domain of Lhx2: Lhx2 belongs to the LHX protein 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 animals, Lhx2
           plays important roles in eye, cerebral cortex, limb, the
           olfactory organs, and erythrocyte development. Lhx2 gene
           knockout mice exhibit impaired patterning of the
           cortical hem and the telencephalon of the developing
           brain, and a lack of development in olfactory
           structures. The Lhx2 protein has been shown to bind to
           the mouse M71 olfactory receptor promoter. Similar to
           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.

           member of LHX protein family, which features two tandem
           N-terminal LIM domains and a C-terminal DNA binding
           homeodomain. Isl1 and Isl2 are the two conserved members
           of this family. Proteins in this group are found in the
           nucleus and act as transcription factors or cofactors.

           the nervous system, skeletal muscle, the heart, the
           kidneys, and endocrine organs, such as the pituitary
           gland and the pancreas. Isl-1 is one of the LHX proteins
           isolated originally by virtue of its ability to bind DNA
           sequences from the 5'-flanking region of the rat insulin
           gene in pancreatic insulin-producing cells. Mice
           deficient in Isl-1 fail to form the dorsal exocrine
           pancreas and islet cells fail to differentiate. On the
           other hand, Isl-1 takes part in the pituitary
           development by activating the gonadotropin-releasing
           hormone receptor gene together with LHX3 and
           steroidogenic factor 1. Mouse Is l2 is expressed in the
           retinal ganglion cells and the developing spinal cord
           where it plays a role in motor neuron development. Same
           as Isl1, Isl2 may also be able to bind to the insulin
           gene enhancer to promote gene activation. All LIM
           domains are 50-60 amino acids in size and share two
           characteristic zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers

           family consists of five members, designated FHL1, FHL2,
           FHL3, FHL5 and LIMPETin. The first four members are
           composed of four complete LIM domains arranged in tandem
           and  an N-terminal single zinc finger domain with a
           consensus sequence equivalent to the C-terminal half of
           a LIM domain. LIMPETin is an exception, containing six
           LIM domains. FHL1, 2 and 3 are predominantly expressed
           in muscle tissues, and FHL5 is highly 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, regulating myosin
           filament formation and sarcomere assembly. FHL2 has
           shown to interact with more than 50 different proteins,
           including receptors, structural proteins, transcription
           factors and cofactors, signal transducers, splicing
           factors, DNA replication and repair enzymes, and
           metabolic enzymes. FHL3 int eracts with many
           transcription factors, such as CREB, BKLF/KLF3, CtBP2,
           MyoD, and MZF_1. FHL5 is a tissue-specific coactivator
           of CREB/CREM family transcription factors. LIM domains

          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
          named junctional Rab13-binding protein (JRAB). As in

>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 adaptors or

           complexes.

           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.
           The  LIM domains are the main focal adhesion targeting
           elements and that the proline- rich region, which
           harbors binding sites for alpha-actinin and vasodilator-
           stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP), has a weak targeting

           The first LIM domain of Lhx7 and Lhx8:  Lhx7 and Lhx8
           belong to the LHX protein 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

           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.  Studies using mutant mice have
           revealed roles for Lhx7 and Lhx8 in the development of
           cholinergic neurons in the telencephalon and in basal
           forebrain development. Mice lacking alleles of the
           LIM-homeobox gene Lhx7 or Lhx8 display dramatically
           reduced number of forebrain cholinergic neurons. In

           family consists of five members, designated FHL1, FHL2,
           FHL3, FHL5 and LIMPETin. The first four members are
           composed of four complete LIM domains arranged in tandem
           and an N-terminal single zinc finger domain with a
           consensus sequence equivalent to the C-terminal half of
           a LIM domain. LIMPETin is an exception, containing six
           LIM domains. FHL1, 2 and 3 are predominantly expressed
           in muscle tissues, and FHL5 is highly 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, regulating myosin
           filament formation and sarcomere assembly. FHL2 has
           shown to interact with more than 50 different proteins,
           including receptors, structural proteins, transcription
           factors and cofactors, signal transducers, splicing
           factors, DNA replication and repair enzymes, and
           metabolic enzymes. FHL3 int eracts with many
           transcription factors, such as CREB, BKLF/KLF3, CtBP2,
           MyoD, and MZF_1. FHL5 is a tissue-specific coactivator
           of CREB/CREM family transcription factors. LIM domains

          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

          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

           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

           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

          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

           family.  The first LIM domain of ZASP/Cypher family:
           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
           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

           The first LIM domain of protein LIMPETin: LIMPETin
           contains 6 LIM domains at the C-terminal and an
           N-terminal PET domain. Four of the six LIM domains are
           highly homologous to the four and half LIM domain
           protein family and two of them show sequence similarity
           to the LIM domains of the Testin family. Thus, LIMPETin
           may be the recombinant product of genes coding testin
           and FHL proteins.  In Schistosoma mansoni, where
           LIMPETin was first identified, LIMPETin is down
           regulated in sexually mature adult Schistosoma females
           compared to sexually immature adult females and adult
           male. Its differential expression indicates that it is a

           acids in size and share two characteristic zinc finger
           motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved

>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

           receptor-interacting protein 6 (TRIP6).  The second LIM
           domain of Thyroid receptor-interacting protein 6
           (TRIP6): TRIP6 is a member of the zyxin LIM protein
           family and contains three LIM zinc-binding domains at
           the C-terminal. TRIP6 protein localizes to focal
           adhesion sites and along actin stress fibers.
           Recruitment of this protein to the plasma membrane
           occurs in a lysophosphatidic acid (LPA)-dependent
           manner. TRIP6 recruits a number of molecules involved in
           actin assembly, cell motility, survival and
           transcriptional control. The function of TRIP6 in cell
           motility is regulated by Src-dependent phosphorylation
           at a Tyr residue. The phosphorylation activates the
           coupling to the Crk SH2 domain, which is required for
           the function of TRIP6 in promoting lysophosphatidic acid
           (LPA)-induced cell migration. TRIP6 can shuttle to the
           nucleus to serve as a coactivator of AP-1 and NF-kappaB
           transcriptional factors. Moreover, TRIP6 can form a
           ternary complex with the NHERF2 PDZ protein and LPA2
           receptor to regulate LPA-induced activation of ERK and
           AKT, rendering cells resistant to chemotherapy. Recent
           evidence shows that TRIP6 antagonizes Fas-Induced
           apoptosis by enhancing the antiapoptotic effect of LPA
           in cells. As in other LIM domains, this domain family is
           50-60 amino acids in size and shares two characteristic

           (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.
           The LIM domains are the main focal adhesion targeting
           elements and that the proline- rich region, which
           harbors binding sites for alpha-actinin and vasodilator-
           stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP), has a weak targeting

           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

          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
          size and share two characteristic highly conserved 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

>gnl|CDD|188849 cd09465, LIM2_LIMK2, The second LIM domain of LIMK2 (LIM domain
          Kinase 2).  The second 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 depolymerisation. 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,

           The third LIM domain of protein LIMPETin: LIMPETin
           contains 6 LIM domains at the C-terminal and an
           N-terminal PET domain. Four of the six LIM domains are
           highly homologous to the four and half LIM domain
           protein family and two of them show sequence similarity
           to the LIM domains of the testin family. Thus, LIMPETin
           may be the recombinant product of genes coding testin
           and FHL proteins.  In Schistosoma mansoni, where
           LIMPETin was first identified, LIMPETin is down
           regulated in sexually mature adult Schistosoma females
           compared to sexually immature adult females and adult

          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

          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

>gnl|CDD|188850 cd09466, LIM1_Lhx3a, The first LIM domain of Lhx3a.  The first LIM
           domain of Lhx3a: Lhx3a is a member of LHX protein
           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. 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, and
           transcripts are found in the emergent pituitary 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
           properties. In human, Lhx3a trans-activated the
           alpha-glycoprotein subunit promoter and genes containing
           a high-affinity Lhx3 binding site more effectively than
           the hLhx3b isoform. In addition, hLhx3a induce
           transcription of the TSHbeta-subunit gene by acting on
           pituitary POU domain factor, Pit-1, while hLhx3b does
           not. 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.

>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

           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. The LHX3 and LHX4
           LIM-homeodomain transcription factors play essential
           roles in pituitary gland and nervous system development.
           Although LHX3 and LHX4 share marked sequence homology,
           the genes have different expression 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 gene regulation experiments, the LHX4 protein
           exhibits regulation roles towards pituitary genes,
           acting on their promoters/enhancers. As in other LIM

>gnl|CDD|188769 cd09383, LIM2_Lhx7_Lhx8, The second LIM domain of Lhx7 and Lhx8.
           The second LIM domain of Lhx7 and Lhx8:  Lhx7 and Lhx8
           belong to the LHX protein 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.  Studies using mutant mice have
           revealed roles for Lhx7 and Lhx8 in the development of
           cholinergic neurons in the telencephalon and in basal
           forebrain development. Mice lacking alleles of the
           LIM-homeobox gene Lhx7 or Lhx8 display dramatically
           reduced number of forebrain cholinergic neurons. In
           addition, Lhx7 mutation affects male and female mice
           differently, with females appearing more affected than
           males. 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.

>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 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

           LIM domains function as adaptors or scaffolds to support
           the assembly of multimeric protein complexes.

           domain of Lhx3b. Lhx3b is a member of LHX protein
           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. Lhx3b 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, and
           transcripts are found in the emergent pituitary 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
           properties. In human, Lhx3a trans-activated the
           alpha-glycoprotein subunit promoter and genes containing
           a high-affinity Lhx3 binding site more effectively than
           the hLhx3b isoform. In addition, hLhx3a induce
           transcription of the TSHbeta-subunit gene by acting on
           pituitary POU domain factor, Pit-1, while hLhx3b does
           not. As in other LIM domains, this domain family is
           50-60 amino acids in size and shares two characteristic

           and a half LIM domains protein 2 (FHL2):  FHL2 is one of
           the best studied FHL proteins. FHL2 expression is most
           abundant in the heart, and in brain, liver and lung at
           lesser extent. FHL2 participates in a wide range of
           cellular processes, such as transcriptional regulation,
           signal transduction, and cell survival by binding to
           various protein partners. FHL2 has shown to interact
           with more than 50 different proteins, including
           receptors, structural proteins, transcription factors
           and cofactors, signal transducers, splicing factors, DNA
           replication and repair enzymes, and metabolic enzymes.
           Although FHL2 is abundantly expressed in heart, the fhl2

          cytoskeleton adaptor protein, which is preferentially
          expressed in hematopoietic cells. Leupaxin belongs to
          the paxillin focal adhesion protein family. Same as
          other members of the family, it has four leucine-rich
          LD-motifs in the N-terminus and four LIM domains in the
          C-terminus. It may function in cell type-specific
          signaling by associating with interaction partners
          PYK2, FAK, PEP and p95PKL.  When expressed in human
          leukocytic cells, leupaxin significantly suppressed
          integrin-mediated cell adhesion to fibronectin and the
          tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin. These findings
          indicate that leupaxin may negatively regulate the

          interacts with the insulin receptor and the second LIM

           sequences from the 5'-flanking region of the rat insulin
           gene in pancreatic insulin-producing cells. Mice
           deficient in Isl-1 fail to form the dorsal exocrine
           pancreas and islet cells fail to differentiate. On the
           other hand, Isl-1 takes part in the pituitary
           development by activating the gonadotropin-releasing
           hormone receptor gene together with LHX3 and

           and a half LIM domains protein 2 (FHL2):  FHL2 is one of
           the best studied FHL proteins. FHL2 expression is most
           abundant in the heart, and in brain, liver and lung to a
           lesser extent. FHL2 participates in a wide range of
           cellular processes, such as transcriptional regulation,
           signal transduction, and cell survival by binding to
           various protein partners. FHL2 has shown to interact
           with more than 50 different proteins, including
           receptors, structural proteins, transcription factors
           and cofactors, signal transducers, splicing factors, DNA
           replication and repair enzymes, and metabolic enzymes.
           Although FHL2 is abundantly expressed in heart, the fhl2
           null mice are viable and had no detectable abnormal
           cardiac phenotype. LIM domains are 50-60 amino acids in
           size and share two characteristic zinc finger motifs.
           The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved residues,

           in muscle tissues, and FHL5 is highly expressed in male
           germ cells.  FHL proteins exert their roles as
           transcription co-activators or co-repressors through a

           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

           including disorganized cerebellum, hippocampus, and
           cortex; altered pigmentation; female sterility; skeletal
           defects; and behavioral abnormalities. Within pancreatic
           cells, the Lmx1a protein interacts synergistically with

           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
           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

           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

           the two conserved members of this family. Mouse Isl2 is
           expressed in the retinal ganglion cells and the
           developing spinal cord where it plays a role in motor
           neuron development. Isl2 may be able to bind to the
           insulin gene enhancer to promote gene activation. 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.

           related members of LHX protein family, which features

           gland and the pancreas. Lhx1 is required for regulating
           the vertebrate head organizer, the nervous system, and
           female reproductive tract development. During
           embryogenesis in the mouse, Lhx1 is expressed early in
           mesodermal tissue, then later during urogenital, kidney,
           liver, and nervous system development. In the adult,
           expression is restricted to the kidney and brain. A
           mouse embryos with Lhx1 gene knockout cannot grow normal
           anterior head structures, kidneys, and gonads, but with
           normally developed trunk and tail morphology. In the
           developing nervous system, Lhx1 is required to direct
           the trajectories of motor axons in the limb. Lhx1 null
           female mice lack the oviducts and uterus.  Lhx5 protein
           may play complementary or overlapping roles with Lhx1.
           The expression of Lhx5 in the anterior portion of the

           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

           bind molybdopterin as a cofactor. The MopB domain is
           found in a wide variety of molybdenum- and
           tungsten-containing enzymes, including formate
           dehydrogenase-H (Fdh-H) and -N (Fdh-N), several forms of

           reductase (DMSOR), thiosulfate reductase,
           formylmethanofuran dehydrogenase, and arsenite oxidase.
           Molybdenum is present in most of these enzymes in the
           form of molybdopterin, a modified pterin ring with a
           dithiolene side chain, which is responsible for ligating
           the Mo. In many bacterial and archaeal species,
           molybdopterin is in the form of a dinucleotide, with two
           molybdopterin dinucleotide units per molybdenum. These
           proteins can function as monomers, heterodimers, or
           heterotrimers, depending on the protein and organism.
           Also included in the MopB superfamily is the

           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
           gene regulation experiments, the LHX4 protein exhibits
           regulation roles towards pituitary genes, acting on
           their promoters/enhancers. 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.
