'''Obscurin''' (Obs) or '''KIAA1556''' is a giant sarcomeric signalling protein expressed in striated muscles.  Other giant proteins in the family include titin and nebulin.  It is a multidomain protein containing adhesion modules and signaling domains.  These domains include: 68 Ig domains, 2 fibronectin domains, 1 calcium/calmodulin-binding domain, 1 RhoGEF domain with PH domain and 2 serine/thereonine kinase domains.

Obscurin binds small ankyrin 1 which is part of the sarcoplasmic reticulum membrane.  It associates with the contractile apparatus via binding to titin and sarcomeric myosin.  Obscurin is assumed to play a key role in modulating the organization and assembly of sarcomeric reticulum and the myofibril<ref>PMID:17012262</ref>.
