Calponin 3 also known as CNN3 is a protein that regulates actin cytoskeleton dynamics. It is a smaller protein with a mass of approximately 37.5 kDa. Calponin 3 is expressed in various tissues including smooth muscle and certain non-muscle cells. This protein functions by interacting with actin filaments where it plays a role in stabilizing the cytoskeletal structure. CNN3 may also have similar functions to those of other members of the calponin family engaging in processes that influence cellular contractility and motility.
The functions of calponin 3 extend to cellular processes such as migration and proliferation. It does not work alone but is a part of a network of proteins and may form complexes with other cytoskeletal components. Calponin 3 contributes to cellular activities by modulating actin filament interactions helping maintain cell shape and structural integrity under stress. As part of the calponin family its function resembles that of other family members which bind with actin and affect the contractile apparatus in cells.
Calponin 3 integrates into the regulation of the actin cytoskeleton and cell migration pathways. It is associated with the Rho GTPase pathway influencing actin dynamics through these interactions. Another related pathway includes the calcium signaling pathway as calponin family members often show calcium-sensitive binding to actin. In these pathways calponin 3 interacts with proteins like tropomyosin and myosin which are critical to cytoskeletal organization and movement.
Calponin 3 has relevance to certain cancers and cardiovascular disorders. Changes in calponin 3 expression levels or function have been linked to tumor progression as its role in cell motility might influence cancer metastasis. The protein might also impact cardiovascular disease through its involvement in smooth muscle contraction regulation which could affect blood vessel function and contribute to hypertension. Interaction with myosin light chain kinase can further explain these effects as disruptions in this relationship can exacerbate disease states.
