Cap-Z
Stabilizes actin
Leiomodin, tropomodulin, and nebulin
Regulate actin length
Alpha actinin
Comprises z line and provides sarcomere stability
Desmin IF
Anchors z line and provides sarcomere stability
Vimentin
Gives structural support, regeneration of muscle and hypertrophy
Dystrophin
Mechanical stability
Syntrophin
Anchors signaling molecules (nNos)
Dystroglycan
Structural stability
Sarcoglycan
Stabilizes cell membrane or sarcolemma
Integrin
Mechanosensor, important for hypertrophy
essential light chain
