Lamellipodial actin branches out

Many cell types, including fi broblasts and epithelial cells, move forward by forming an actin-rich membrane protrusion, called a lamellipodium, at the front of the cell. In the early 1990s, researchers thought that lamellipodial protrusion was driven by the polymerization of linear actin fi laments. In two JCB papers published in 1997 and 1999, however, Tatyana Svitkina and colleagues revealed...

Actin branches out in yeast

Actin branches out in yeast any of the same proteins control actin polymerization in budding yeast and mammalian cells. But budding yeast researchers—hampered by an emphasis on genetics and an inaccessible yeast cytoplasm dense with ribosomes and glycogen granules—have often lagged behind in providing structural descriptions based on electron microscopy (EM). This has fueled suspicions about wh...

Actin Turnover in Lamellipodial Fragments.

Actin turnover is the central driving force underlying lamellipodial motility. The molecular components involved are largely known, and their properties have been studied extensively in vitro. However, a comprehensive picture of actin turnover in vivo is still missing. We focus on fragments from fish epithelial keratocytes, which are essentially stand-alone motile lamellipodia. The geometric si...

Actin Dynamics: The Arp2/3 Complex Branches Out

Several new findings point to novel functions for the Arp2/3 complex. The dendritic nucleation model that has been proposed to describe cell extension for locomotion may also be applicable to other actin-based processes.

Phospholipid prunes actin branches

Starving tumors eat metabolic enzyme Xia et al. describe a way to force cancer cells to destroy a key metabolic enzyme they need to survive. Autophagy helps cancer cells survive the stressful environment inside a tumor. However, blocking the process doesn’t kill cancer cells, so researchers have been looking for a way to make cells vulnerable to autophagy shutdown. Xia et al. used an ovarian ca...
