Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein component of any cytoskeleton (actin, microtubule, or intermediate filament cytoskeleton). Interacting selectively and non-covalently with muscle isoforms of actinin. Muscle alpha-actinin isoforms are found in skeletal and cardiac muscle and are localized to the Z-disc. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with alpha-actinin, one of a family of proteins that cross-link F-actin as antiparallel homodimers. Alpha-actinin has a molecular mass of 93-103 KDa; at the N-terminus there are two calponin homology domains, at the C-terminus there are two EF-hands. These two domains are connected by the rod domain. This domain is formed by triple-helical spectrin repeats. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with actinin, any member of a family of proteins that crosslink F-actin. Interacting selectively and non-covalently with nonmuscle isoforms of actinin. Nonmuscle alpha-actinin is found at the leading edge of motile cells, cell adhesion sites, focal contacts and along actin stress fibers in migrating cells.
