Background
Mutations in dysferlin, a protein associated with the plasma membrane, can cause muscle weakness that affects both proximal and distal muscles. The protein encoded by this gene is a type II membrane protein that is structurally similar to dysferlin. It is a member of the ferlin family and associates with both plasma and nuclear membranes. The protein contains C2 domains that play a role in calcium-mediated membrane fusion events, suggesting that it may be involved in membrane regeneration and repair. Two transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. Other possible variants have been detected, but their full-length nature has not been determined.

Function
cofactor:Binds calcium ions. The ions are bound to the C2 1 domain.,domain:The C2 domain 1 associates with lipid membranes in a calcium-dependent manner.,function:Calcium/phospholipid-binding protein that plays a role in the plasmalemma repair mechanism of endothelial cells that permits rapid resealing of membranes disrupted by mechanical stress. Involved in endocytic recycling. Implicated in VEGF signal transduction by regulating the levels of the receptor KDR.,similarity:Belongs to the ferlin family.,similarity:Contains 5 C2 domains.,subcellular location:Concentrated at the membrane sites of both myoblast-myoblast and myoblast-myotube fusions. Detected at the plasmalemma in endothelial cells lining intact blood vessels (By similarity). Found at nuclear and plasma membranes. Enriched in undifferentiated myoblasts near the plasma membrane in puncate structures.,subunit:Interacts with DNM
