      Entrez Gene Number
      Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene is a member of the tropomyosin family of highly conserved, widely distributed actin-binding proteins involved in the contractile system of striated and smooth muscles and the cytoskeleton of non-muscle cells. Tropomyosin is composed of two alpha-helical chains arranged as a coiled-coil. It is polymerized end to end along the two grooves of actin filaments and provides stability to the filaments. The encoded protein is one type of alpha helical chain that forms the predominant tropomyosin of striated muscle, where it also functions in association with the troponin complex to regulate the calcium-dependent interaction of actin and myosin during muscle contraction. In smooth muscle and non-muscle cells, alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding a range of isoforms have been described. Mutations in this gene are associated with type 3 familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

      UniProt Number
      UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P09493 # Binds to actin filaments in muscle and non-muscle cells. Plays a central role, in association with the troponin complex, in the calcium dependent regulation of vertebrate striated muscle contraction. Smooth muscle contraction is regulated by interaction with caldesmon. In non-muscle cells is implicated in stabilizing cytoskeleton actin filaments.
      SIZE: 284 amino acids; 32709 Da
      SUBUNIT: Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta chain.
      TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Detected in primary breast cancer tissues but undetectable in normal breast tissues in Sudanese patients.
      DOMAIN: SwissProt: P09493 The molecule is in a coiled coil structure that is formed by 2 polypeptide chains. The sequence exhibits a prominent seven- residues periodicity.
      DISEASE: SwissProt: P09493 # Defects in TPM1 are the cause of familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy type 3 (CMH3) [MIM:115196]; also designated FHC or HCM. Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [MIM:192600] is a heart disorder characterized by ventricular hypertrophy, which is usually asymmetric and often involves the interventricular septum. The prevalence of the disease in the general population is 0.2%. FHC is clinically heterogeneous, with inter- and intrafamilial variations ranging from benign to malignant forms with high risk of cardiac failure and sudden cardiac death.
      SIMILARITY: Belongs to the tropomyosin family.
