Could also bind muscle proteins such as actin to membrane complexes in muscle. May be involved not only in the filaments network, but also in the regulation of their dynamics. Structural component of muscle. Isoform 9 plays a major role in the maintenance of myofiber integrity. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12482924, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21109228}.View more >>
