Rab11 is required for maintenance of cell shape via βPS integrin mediated cell adhesion in Drosophila
In eukaryotes, vesicle trafficking is regulated by the small monomeric GTPases of the Rab protein family. Rab11, (a subfamily of the Ypt/Rab gene family) an evolutionarily conserved, ubiquitously expressed subfamily of small monomeric Rab GTPases, has been implicated in regulating vesicular trafficking through the recycling of endosomal compartment. In an earlier communication, we have shown th...
متن کاملELAM-1--dependent cell adhesion to vascular endothelium determined by a transfected human fucosyltransferase cDNA.
Adhesion of circulating leukocytes to the vascular endothelium during inflammation is mediated in part by their interaction with the endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule ELAM-1. ELAM-1, a member of the LEC-CAM family of cell adhesion molecules, expresses an N-terminal carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD) homologous to various calcium-dependent mammalian lectins. However, the contribution of...
متن کاملNotch-Mediated Cell Adhesion
Notch family members are generally recognized as signaling molecules that control various cellular responses in metazoan organisms. Early fly studies and our mammalian studies demonstrated that Notch family members are also cell adhesion molecules; however, information on the physiological roles of this function and its origin is limited. In this review, we discuss the potential present and anc...
متن کاملCell Adhesion to Unnatural Ligands Mediated by a Bifunctional Protein
This paper describes a molecular strategy to restore adhesion of cells to surfaces that otherwise do not present ligands that can mediate adhesion. The approach is based on a carbonic anhydrase fusion protein that binds benzenesulfonamides and that also includes the RGD peptide motif that can bind to cell-surface integrin adhesion receptors. In this way, the fusion protein can bind to a monolay...
متن کاملAlcohol Inhibits Cell-Cell Adhesion Mediated by Human L1
Mental retardation, hydrocephalus, and agenesis of the corpus callosum are observed both in fetal alcohol syndrome (FAS) and in children with mutations in the gene for the cell adhesion molecule L1. We studied the effects of ethanol on cell-cell adhesion in mouse fibroblasts transfected with human L1. Ll-transfected fibroblasts exhibited increased cell-cell adhesion compared with wild-type or v...
