Enigma homolog (ENH) is a PDZ/LIM domain protein that contains one N-terminal PDZ domain and three C-terminal LIM domains.
ENH is expressed in the heart and skeletal muscle, and associates through any single LIM domain with the regulatory region of PKC.
PDZ/LIM domain proteins also interact with cytoskeletal proteins through their PDZ domain.
ENH colocalizes with alpha-actinin at the Z-disk of cardiomyocytes, and associates with actin and alpha-actinin through the PDZ domain.
PDZ/LIM domain proteins have also been shown to associate with actin stress fibers of non-muscle cells.
ENH interacts specifically with both PKC epsilon and N-type Ca2+ channels in neurons, forming a macromolecular complex.
ENH thus targets a specific PKC to its substrate to form a functional signaling complex, which is the molecular mechanism for the specificity and efficiency of PKC signaling.
