Filamin actin-binding and titin-binding fulfill distinct functions in Z-disc cohesion.

Many proteins contribute to the contractile properties of muscles, most notably myosin thick filaments, which are anchored at the M-line, and actin thin filaments, which are anchored at the Z-discs that border each sarcomere.
