BACKGROUND: Vinculin is a cytoskeletal protein that plays an important role in the regulation of focal adhesions and embryonic development (1) . Three structural vinculin domains include an amino-terminal head, a short flexible proline-rich region and a carboxy-terminal tail (2) . Expression of vinculin were shown to be affected by the level of actin expression (2, 3) . Vinculin deficiencies are associated with a decrease in cell adhesion and an increase in cell motility, suggesting a possible role in metastatic growth (4) . Defects in VCL are the cause of cardiomyopathy dilated type 1W (CMD1W) (5) .
