>gnl|CDD|188762 cd09376, LIM2_Lhx3_Lhx4, The second LIM domain of Lhx3-Lhx4 family.
            The second LIM domain of Lhx3-Lhx4 family: Lhx3 and
           Lhx4 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. 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
           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|188856 cd09472, LIM2_Lhx3b, The second LIM domain of Lhx3b.  The second
           LIM 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
           zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight
           conserved residues, mostly cysteines and histidines,

           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

           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

           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

           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,

           protein 4).  The first 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
           size and share two characteristic zinc finger motifs.

           vesicles, the notochord, and the pancreas. 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, Bmp6, and Bmp7. Further

           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

           LHX proteins are critical for the development of

           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

           family.  The second 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
           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.

           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

            The functions of Lmx1a in the developing nervous system
           were revealed by studies of mutant mouse. In mouse,

           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

           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
           size and share two characteristic zinc finger motifs.
           The two zinc fingers contain eight conserved residues,

           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.

           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

           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

           (LIM domain only protein 1 and 3).  The second LIM
           domain of LMO1 and LMO3 (LIM domain only protein 1 and
           3): LMO1 and LMO3 are highly homologous and belong to
           the LMO protein family. LMO1 and LMO3 are nuclear
           protein that plays important roles in transcriptional
           regulation and development. As LIM domains lack
           intrinsic DNA-binding activity, nuclear LMOs are
           involved in transcriptional regulation by forming
           complexes with other transcription factors or cofactors.
           For example, LMO1 interacts with the the bHLH domain of 
           bHLH transcription factor, TAL1 (T-cell acute
           leukemia1)/SCL (stem cell leukemia) . LMO1 inhibits the
           expression of TAL1/SCL target genes.  LMO3 facilitates
           p53 binding to its response elements, which suggests
           that LMO3 acts as a co-repressor of p53, suppressing
           p53-dependent transcriptional regulation. In addition,
           LMO3 interacts with neuronal transcription factor, HEN2,
           and acts as an oncogene in neuroblastoma. Another
           binding partner of LMO3 is calcium- and integrin-binding
           protein CIB, which binds via the second LIM domain
           (LIM2) of LMO3. One role of the CIB/LMO3 complex is to
           inhibit cell proliferation. Although LMO1 and LMO3 are
           highly homologous proteins, they play different roles in
           the regulation of the pituitary glycoprotein hormone

           (abLIM) proteins.  The third LIM domain of actin binding
           LIM (abLIM) proteins: Three homologous members 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 size and share two characteristic highly
           conserved zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers
           contain eight conserved residues, mostly cysteines and

           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,

           LMO1 and LMO3 (LIM domain only protein 1 and 3): LMO1
           and LMO3 are highly homologous and belong to the LMO
           protein family. LMO1 and LMO3 are nuclear protein that
           plays important roles in transcriptional regulation and
           development. As LIM domains lack intrinsic DNA-binding
           activity, nuclear LMOs are involved in transcriptional
           regulation by forming complexes with other transcription
           factors or cofactors. For example, LMO1 interacts with
           the the bHLH domain of  bHLH transcription factor, TAL1
           (T-cell acute leukemia1)/SCL (stem cell leukemia) . LMO1
           inhibits the expression of TAL1/SCL target genes.  LMO3
           facilitates p53 binding to its response elements, which
           suggests that LMO3 acts as a co-repressor of p53,
           suppressing p53-dependent transcriptional regulation. In
           addition, LMO3 interacts with neuronal transcription
           factor, HEN2, and acts as an oncogene in neuroblastoma.
           Another binding partner of LMO3 is calcium- and
           integrin-binding protein CIB, which binds via the second
           LIM domain (LIM2) of LMO3. One role of the CIB/LMO3
           complex is to inhibit cell proliferation. Although LMO1
           and LMO3 are highly homologous proteins, they play
           different roles in the regulation of the pituitary
           glycoprotein hormone alpha-subunit (alpha GSU) gene.
           Alpha GSU promoter activity was markedly repressed by

           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,
           mostly cysteines and histidines, which coordinately bond
           to two zinc atoms. LIM domains function as adaptors or

           (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

           locations to respond to environmental changes rapidly.
           The C-terminal region of paxillin contains four LIM
           domains which target paxillin to focal adhesions,

           Kinase 1).  The second 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

           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 adaptors or scaffolds to support the

           domains protein (FHL).  The first LIM domain of Four and
           a half LIM domains protein (FHL): LIM-only protein
           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
           are 50-60 amino acids in size and share two
           characteristic zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers

           (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

           three tandem C-terminal LIM domains, and a proline-rich
           N-terminal region.  Zyxin proteins are detected
           primarily in focal adhesion plaques. They function as

           interactions and signal transduction networks, which
           regulate cell adhesion, spreading, and motility. They

           receptor-interacting protein 6 (TRIP6).  The first 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

           at the N-terminal. 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. Knockout mice experiments reveal that
           tumor repressor function of testin. 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.

           second LIM domain of Leupaxin: Leupaxin is a
           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
           functions of paxillin during integrin signaling. LIM

           export signal.  Localized at sites of cellsubstratum
           adhesion in fibroblasts, Zyxin interacts with

           for cell differentiation. In addition to its functions

>gnl|CDD|188748 cd09362, LIM2_Enigma_like, The second LIM domain of Enigma-like
           family.  The second 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

           contains three LIM domains at the C-terminus and a PDZ

           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 depolymerization. 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

           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 assembly of multimeric protein
           complexes.

>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 multimeric protein.

           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.

>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

           receptor-interacting protein 6 (TRIP6).  The third 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

           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

           establishment requires the conserved

           Dishevelled, thereby modulating Frizzled/Dishevelled
           activity and PCP signaling. Two forms of prickles have
           been identified; namely prickle 1 and prickle 2. Prickle
           1 and prickle 2 are differentially expressed. While
           prickle 1 is expressed in fetal heart and hematological
           malignancies, prickle 2 is found in fetal brain, adult
           cartilage, pancreatic islet, and some types of timorous
           cells. LIM domains are 50-60 amino acids in size and

           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

           sharing approximately 30% with each of the three other
           CRPs.  Like CRP1, CRP2 and CRP3/MLP, TLP has two LIM

           Same as enigma, it contains three LIM domains at the

           implicated in signal transduction processes involving
           protein kinases.  It has also been shown that ENH
           interacts with protein kinase D1 (PKD1) via its LIM

           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
           zinc finger motifs. The two zinc fingers contain eight

>gnl|CDD|188831 cd09447, LIM_LASP, The LIM domain of LIM and SH3 Protein (LASP).
           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
           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|188822 cd09438, LIM3_Ajuba_like, The third LIM domain of Ajuba-like
           proteins.  The third 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 multimeric protein.

           in humans as a protein containing three LIM domains at
           the C-terminus and a PDZ domain at N-terminus.  The
           third LIM domain specifically interacts with the insulin
           receptor and the second LIM domain interacts with the

           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.

           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

           domains protein (FHL).  The fourth LIM domain of Four
           and a half LIM domains protein (FHL): LIM-only protein
           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 interacts 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
           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.

           LASP-2 is more structural. The expression of LASP-1 in
           breast tumors is increased significantly.  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.

>gnl|CDD|188826 cd09442, LIM_Eplin_like, The Lim domain of Epithelial Protein Lost
           in Neoplasm (Eplin) like proteins.  The Lim domain of
           Epithelial Protein Lost in Neoplasm (Eplin) like
           proteins: This family contains Epithelial Protein Lost
           in Neoplasm in Neoplasm (Eplin), xin actin-binding
           repeat-containing protein 2 (XIRP2) and a group of
           protein with unknown function.  The members of this
           family all contain a single LIM domain. Epithelial
           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.
           The expression of Xirp2 is activated by myocyte enhancer
           factor (MEF)2A, whose  transcriptional activity is
           stimulated by angiotersin II. Thus, Xirp2 plays
           important pathological roles in the angiotensin II
           induced hypertension. 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

           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 size and share two
           characteristic highly conserved zinc finger motifs. The

           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

           LPP initially identified as the most frequent
           translocation partner of HMGA2 (High Mobility Group A2)
           in a subgroup of benign tumors of adipose tissue

           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

>gnl|CDD|188866 cd09482, LIM2_CRP3, The second LIM domain of Cysteine Rich Protein
           3 (CRP3/MLP).  The second LIM domain of Cysteine Rich
           Protein 3 (CRP3/MLP):  Cysteine-rich proteins (CRPs) are
           characterized by the presence of two LIM domains linked
           to short glycine-rich repeats (GRRs). The CRP family
           members include CRP1, CRP2, CRP3/MLP and TLPCRP1, 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 circuits, and the organization as well as
           the arrangement of the myofibrillar/cytoskeletal
           network.CRP3 also called Muscle LIM Protein (MLP), which
           is a striated muscle-specific factor that enhances
           myogenic differentiation. The second LIM domain of
           CRP3/MLP interacts with cytoskeletal protein
           beta-spectrin. CRP3/MLP also interacts with the basic
           helix-loop-helix myogenic transcription factors MyoD,
           myogenin, and MRF4 thereby increasing their affinity for
           specific DNA regulatory elements. 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|188795 cd09411, LIM4_Paxillin, The fourth LIM domain of Paxillin.  The
           fourth LIM domain of Paxillin: Paxillin is an adaptor
           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,
           cytoskeletal reorganization and gene expression. 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.
