Syncoilin is characterized as an intermediate filament and contains the key structural features that make up intermediate filaments such as a head region, linker regions, alpha helices, and a tail region.

Discovery
[edit]Syncoilin is a muscle-specific atypical type III intermediate filament protein encoded in the human by the gene SYNC.[1] It was first isolated as a binding partner to α-dystrobrevin, as determined by a yeast two-hybrid assay.[2]
Later, a yeast two-hybrid method was used to demonstrate that syncoilin is a binding partner of desmin.[3] These binding partners suggest that syncoilin acts as a mechanical "linker" between the sarcomere Z-disk (where desmin is localized) and the dystrophin-associated protein complex (where α-dystrobrevin is localized). However, the specific in vivo functions of syncoilin have not yet been determined.
Through the use of Western blotting techniques, a second species of syncoilin was found. This species was 55kDa in size, whereas the original species of syncoilin was 64kDa in size. This discovery inspired scientists to use gene splicing to identify two new isoforms called SYNC2 and SYNC3.[4]
Abnormally high levels of syncoilin have been shown to be a characteristic of neuromuscular wasting diseases such as desminopathy[5] and muscular dystrophy.[6] Therefore, syncoilin is being explored as a promising marker of neuromuscular disease.
Structure

Each protein that is classified as an intermediate filament will vary in the size and shape of their head and tail regions.[7]
More specifically, syncoilin is structurally defined by its central rod domain that forms a coil made up of 4 subunits, an α-helical region separated by flexible linkers, a N-terminal head domain, and a C-terminal tail domain.[7] The isoform of syncoilin, SYNC 3, has a much different structure than the original protein filament. This isoform has a truncated rod domain and lacks a C-terminal tail region.[4]
Because the tail of syncoilin is so short, it is hypothesized that this affects the ability of syncoilin to form other filaments.[7] Syncoilin is different from other type III intermediate filaments because it has a unique N-terminal that is unlike any other protein.[8] Syncoilin does not have the capability of forming dimers spontaneously like other filaments.[9]
