Flipping the fusion switch
dvancing cells periodically pull on their substrates to test the environment, say Grégory Giannone, Michael Sheetz (Columbia University, New York, NY), and colleagues. The actomyosin contractions both strengthen attachments to more solid substrates, and break off part of a signaling complex so that it can be carried into the cell. Once that retrograde signal reaches myosin, which is some distan...

A structural switch controls the architecture of Vibrio cholerae biofilms by mediating the interactions between two matrix components.
متن کاملFLIPping the kill switch
I t's always wise to consult others before making a big decision, so a cell seeks input from a lot of different proteins before choosing between survival and death by apoptosis. Fricker et al. describe how one particular protein— cFLIP—can nudge a cell in either direction depending on the expression levels of its three different isoforms (1). Cells contemplate suicide in response to a number of...
متن کاملTranscriptional Regulation: Flipping the Myc switch
When certain cells differentiate, Myc in Myc-Max heterodimers is replaced by Mad or Mxi, generating heterodimers that suppress transcription by interacting with the repressor Sin3.
متن کاملFlipping the Switch to an Active Spliceosome
The interaction of U1 with the 5Ј splice site has long been known to be required for spliceosome assembly. In fact, according to the sequential assembly model, U1 A spliceosome is a molecular machine that catalyzes is the first spliceosomal component that interacts with the precise excision of an intron from a pre–messenger the substrate RNA and is responsible both for defining RNA (pre-mRNA). ...
