==TRITOPODIN==
==Introduction==
Tritopodin is the third member (besides myopodin and synaptopodin) of the podin family proteins and is codified by the gene ''SYNPO2L''[http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/Q9H987]. Tritopodin has been revealed by database searches, and since it is the third member  of the podin family of proteins with extended sequence similarity, was named ‘‘tritopodin’’. Trotopodin is also known under the names synaptopodin 2-like, Myopodin-like and CHAP (cytoskeletal heart-enriched actin-associated protein) and is found in heart and skeletal muscle tissue <ref> PMID:19151983 </ref>. Tritopodin share 33% of homology in the Aminoacid sequence with Myopodin and 30% with Synaptopodin <ref> PMID:9314539 </ref>, which makes believe similar functions for both proteins. Tritopodin gene it is form by 5 exons and 3 isoforms are postulated: mCHAPa from exon 1,2,3 and 5, as well as mCHAPb that result from a start-codon in exon 4, from which derives two proteins variants of 140kDa (mCHAPa) and 110kDa (mCHAPb) <ref> PMID:20215401 </ref> and .
