== Function ==
The most intensively studied role for dysferlin is in a cellular process called membrane repair. Membrane repair is a critical mechanism by which cells are able to seal dramatic wounds to the plasma membrane. Muscle is thought to be particularly prone to membrane wounds given that muscle cells transmit high force and undergo cycles of contraction. Dysferlin is highly expressed in muscle, and is homologous to the ferlin family of proteins, which are thought to regulate membrane fusion across a wide variety of species and cell types.<ref name="pmid9731527">{{cite journal |vauthors=Bashir R, Britton S, Strachan T, Keers S, Vafiadaki E, Lako M, Richard I, Marchand S, Bourg N, Argov Z, Sadeh M, Mahjneh I, Marconi G, Passos-Bueno MR, Moreira Ede S, Zatz M, Beckmann JS, Bushby K |title=A gene related to Caenorhabditis elegans spermatogenesis factor fer-1 is mutated in limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B |journal=Nat.

First, dysferlin-deficient muscle fibers show accumulation of vesicles (which are critical for membrane repair in non-muscle cell types) near membrane lesions, indicating that dysferlin may be required for fusion of repair vesicles with the plasma membrane. Further, dysferlin-deficient muscle fibers take up extracellular dyes to a greater extent than wild-type muscle fibers following laser-induced wounding in-vitro.<ref name="pmid12736685">{{cite journal |vauthors=Bansal D, Miyake K, Vogel SS, Groh S, Chen CC, Williamson R, McNeil PL, Campbell KP |title=Defective membrane repair in dysferlin-deficient muscular dystrophy |journal=Nature |volume=423 |issue=6936 |pages=168–72 |year=2003 |pmid=12736685 |doi=10.1038/nature01573 |bibcode=2003Natur.423..168B |s2cid=4402938}}</ref> Dysferlin is also markedly enriched at membrane lesions with several additional proteins thought to be involved in membrane resealing, including [[annexin]] and MG53.<ref name="pmid22421042">{{cite journal |vauthors=Roostalu U, Strähle U |title=In vivo imaging of molecular interactions at damaged sarcolemma |journal=Dev.

Another well studied role for dysferlin is in stabilization of calcium signaling, especially following a mild injury.
