Expression and localization of Tmods and Lmods in striated muscle.

Protein Striated muscle expression Localization in striated muscle References
Tmod1 Cardiac and skeletal muscle Thin filament pointed ends [11, 28, 31, 59, 60, 62, 6567]
SR- or T-tubule-associated compartment* [63]
Sarcolemma [19]

Tmod3 Cardiac and skeletal muscle SR** [63]

Tmod4 Skeletal muscle Thin filament pointed ends [19, 31]
SR- or T-tubule-associated compartment [63]

Lmod1 Slow extraocular muscle fibers A-band [47]

*To date, the putative SR-associated or T-tubule localization of Tmod1 has only been observed in skeletal muscle.

**Tmod3 is expressed ubiquitously, including in cardiac muscle [20, 21], but Tmod3 expression levels and localization in mature cardiomyocytes are uncertain, because Tmod3 is abundant in endothelial cells in all tissues [27].
