Descriptions
Kindlin-3 is a member of the kindlin family of focal adhesion proteins which bind to integrin beta-chain cytoplasmic domains to regulate integrin function. kindlin-3 is maintained in a homotrimer state, which is different from the monomer that binds integrin β cytoplasmic tails. The trimer formation of kindlin-3 results in an autoinhibited state, as the integrin-binding pocket is blocked by the pleckstrin homology (PH) domain of another protomer. Mutations disrupting the trimer interface (Q471A, A475F, S478A) lead to increased integrin-mediated cell adhesion and spreading, indicating relief from autoinhibition. This autoinhibition regulates kindlin-3’s role in integrin activation and signaling, with implications for diseases like leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) III and cancer.

Functions
5 GO annotations of cellular component
| Name | Definition |
|---|---|
| cell-substrate junction | A cell junction that forms a connection between a cell and the extracellular matrix. |
| cytoplasm | The contents of a cell excluding the plasma membrane and nucleus, but including other subcellular structures. |
| M band | The midline of aligned thick filaments in a sarcomere; location of specific proteins that link thick filaments. Depending on muscle type the M band consists of different numbers of M lines. |
| plasma membrane | The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins. |
| striated muscle dense body | A vinculin-containing myofibril attachment structure of striated muscle that connects sarcomeres to the extracellular matrix. In nematode body wall muscle, the dense body performs the dual role of Z-disk and costamere. |
4 GO annotations of molecular function
| Name | Definition |
|---|---|
| cell adhesion molecule binding | Binding to a cell adhesion molecule. |
| integrin binding | Binding to an integrin. |
| protein self-association | Binding to a domain within the same polypeptide. |
| protein-macromolecule adaptor activity | The binding activity of a protein that brings together two or more macromolecules in contact, permitting those molecules to function in a coordinated way. The adaptor can bring together two proteins, or a protein and another macromolecule such as a lipid or a nucleic acid. |
11 GO annotations of biological process
| Name | Definition |
|---|---|
| cell-matrix adhesion | The binding of a cell to the extracellular matrix via adhesion molecules. |
| establishment of protein localization to organelle | The directed movement of a protein to a specific location on or in an organelle. Encompasses establishment of localization in the membrane or lumen of a membrane-bounded organelle. |
| integrin-mediated signaling pathway | The series of molecular signals initiated by an extracellular ligand binding to an integrin on the surface of a target cell, and ending with the regulation of a downstream cellular process, e.g. transcription. |
| locomotion | Self-propelled movement of a cell or organism from one location to another. |
| mitochondrion organization | A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of a mitochondrion; includes mitochondrial morphogenesis and distribution, and replication of the mitochondrial genome as well as synthesis of new mitochondrial components. |
| muscle cell cellular homeostasis | The cellular homeostatic process that preserves a muscle cell in a stable functional or structural state. |
| muscle organ development | The process whose specific outcome is the progression of the muscle over time, from its formation to the mature structure. The muscle is an organ consisting of a tissue made up of various elongated cells that are specialized to contract and thus to produce movement and mechanical work. |
| positive regulation of locomotion | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of locomotion of a cell or organism. |
| positive regulation of myosin II filament organization | Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of myosin II filament organization. |
| positive regulation of sarcomere organization | Any process that increases the rate, frequency or extent of myofibril assembly by organization of muscle actomyosin into sarcomeres. The sarcomere is the repeating unit of a myofibril in a muscle cell, composed of an array of overlapping thick and thin filaments between two adjacent Z discs. |
| regulation of engulfment of apoptotic cell | Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of engulfment of apoptotic cell. |
