Actin organization, bristle morphology, and viability are affected by actin capping protein mutations in Drosophila
Regulation of actin filament length and orientation is important in many actin-based cellular processes. This regulation is postulated to occur through the action of actin-binding proteins. Many actin-binding proteins that modify actin in vitro have been identified, but in many cases, it is not known if this activity is physiologically relevant. Capping protein (CP) is an actin-binding protein ...
متن کاملMammalian CARMIL inhibits actin filament capping by capping protein.
Actin polymerization in cells occurs via filament elongation at the barbed end. Proteins that cap the barbed end terminate this elongation. Heterodimeric capping protein (CP) is an abundant and ubiquitous protein that caps the barbed end. We find that the mouse homolog of the adaptor protein CARMIL (mCARMIL) binds CP with high affinity and decreases its affinity for the barbed end. Addition of ...
متن کاملThe protein encoded by the human proto-oncogene c-myc.
The proto-oncogene c-myc may play a role in controlling the growth and division of normal cells, and abnormalities of the gene have been implicated in the genesis of a substantial variety of human tumors. To facilitate further study of these issues, we developed antisera that permit the identification and isolation of the protein encoded by the human and other mammalian versions of c-myc. We fo...
متن کاملHomeostasis of the Drosophila adult retina by actin-capping protein and the Hippo pathway.
The conserved Hippo signaling pathway regulates multiple cellular events, including tissue growth, cell fate decision and neuronal homeostasis. While the core Hippo kinase module appears to mediate all the effects of the pathway, various upstream inputs have been identified depending on tissue context. We have recently shown that, in the Drosophila wing imaginal disc, actin-Capping Protein and ...
متن کاملRole of proto-oncogene activation in carcinogenesis.
The accumulation of genetic damage in the forms of activated proto-oncogenes and inactivated tumor-suppressor genes is the driving force in the evolution of a normal cell to a malignant cell. For example, both the activation of ras oncogenes and the inactivation of several suppressor genes, including p53, have been observed in the development of human colon and lung tumors. Point mutations in k...
