Function | Membrane-cytoskeleton-associated protein that promotes the assembly of the spectrin-actin network. Plays a role in actin filament capping (PubMed:23836506). Binds to calmodulin (Probable). Involved in myogenic reactivity of the renal afferent arteriole (Af-art), renal interlobular arteries and middle cerebral artery (MCA) to increased perfusion pressure. Involved in regulation of potassium channels in the vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) of the Af-art and MCA ex vivo. Involved in regulation of glomerular capillary pressure, glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and glomerular nephrin expression in response to hypertension. Involved in renal blood flow (RBF) autoregulation. Plays a role in podocyte structure and function. Regulates globular monomer actin (G-actin) and filamentous polymer actin (F-actin) ratios in the primary podocytes affecting actin cytoskeleton organization. Regulates expression of synaptopodin, RhoA, Rac1 and CDC42 in the renal cortex and the primary podocytes. Regulates expression of nephrin in the glomeruli and in the primary podocytes, expression of nephrin and podocinin in the renal cortex, and expression of focal adhesion proteins integrin alpha-3 and integrin beta-1 in the glomeruli. Involved in cell migration and cell adhesion of podocytes, and in podocyte foot process effacement. Regulates expression of profibrotics markers MMP2, MMP9, TGF beta-1, tubular tight junction protein E- cadherin, and mesenchymal markers vimentin and alpha-SMA (By similarity). Promotes the growth of neurites (By similarity). |

Background
Adducins are heteromeric proteins composed of differentsubunits referred to as adducin alpha, beta and gamma. The threesubunits are encoded by distinct genes and belong to a family ofmembrane skeletal proteins involved in the assembly ofspectrin-actin network in erythrocytes and at sites of cell-cellcontact in epithelial tissues. While adducins alpha and gamma areubiquitously expressed, the expression of adducin beta isrestricted to brain and hematopoietic tissues. Adducin, originallypurified from human erythrocytes, was found to be a heterodimer ofadducins alpha and beta. Polymorphisms resulting in amino acidsubstitutions in these two subunits have been associated with theregulation of blood pressure in an animal model of hypertension.Heterodimers consisting of alpha and gamma subunits have also beendescribed. Structurally, each subunit is comprised of two distinctdomains. The amino-terminal region is protease resistant andglobular in shape, while the carboxy-terminal region is proteasesensitive. The latter contains multiple phosphorylation sites forprotein kinase C, the binding site for calmodulin, and is requiredfor association with spectrin and actin. Alternatively splicedadducin gamma transcripts encoding different isoforms have beendescribed. The functions of the different isoforms are not known.
