Background: This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins that possess a 100-amino acid PDZ domain at the N terminus and one to three LIM domains at the C-terminus. This family member functions as a scaffold protein that tethers protein kinases to the Z-disk in striated muscles. It is thought to function in cardiomyocyte expansion and in restraining postsynaptic growth of excitatory synapses. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.

Function:caution:The sequence shown here is derived from an Ensembl automatic analysis pipeline and should be considered as preliminary data.,disease:May play a role in genetic susceptibility to schizophrenia. PDLIM5 is commonly increased in the brain of patients with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and major depression.,function:May play an important role in the heart development by scaffolding PKC to the Z-disk region.,similarity:Contains 1 PDZ (DHR) domain.,similarity:Contains 3 LIM zinc-binding domains.,subunit:Interacts with various PKC isoforms through the LIM domains. Interacts with actin and alpha-actinin through the PDZ domain.,tissue specificity:Heart and skeletal muscle specific.,
Subcellular Location:Cell junction, synapse, postsynaptic density . Cell junction, synapse, presynapse . Cell junction, synapse, postsynapse . Cytoplasm, cytosol . Detected both at presynaptic and postsynaptic sites, exclusively at excitatory synapses, but not inhibitory synapses, in hippocampal neurons. .
Expression:Heart and skeletal muscle specific. Expression is commonly increased in the brain of patients with bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and major depression.
