Coronin-1A Links Cytoskeleton Dynamics to TCRαβ-Induced Cell Signaling
Actin polymerization plays a critical role in activated T lymphocytes both in regulating T cell receptor (TCR)-induced immunological synapse (IS) formation and signaling. Using gene targeting, we demonstrate that the hematopoietic specific, actin- and Arp2/3 complex-binding protein coronin-1A contributes to both processes. Coronin-1A-deficient mice specifically showed alterations in terminal de...
متن کاملCytoskeleton dynamics
Four of six talks in the Cytoskeleton Dynamics Minisymposium described work on filament end-binding proteins: a reflection of the central role they play in cytoskeletal organization. Scott Hansen's single-molecule study of purified vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) demonstrated that it is a weakly processive actin polymerase that is targeted to filament ends by actin monomers. Hansen...
متن کاملNuclear proton dynamics and interactions with calcium signaling
Biochemical signals acting on the nucleus can regulate gene expression. Despite the inherent affinity of nucleic acids and nuclear proteins (e.g. transcription factors) for protons, little is known about the mechanisms that regulate nuclear pH (pHnuc), and how these could be exploited to control gene expression. Here, we show that pHnuc dynamics can be imaged using the DNA-binding dye Hoechst 3...
متن کاملNuclear dynamics, mitosis, and the cytoskeleton during the early stages of colony initiation in Neurospora crassa.
Neurospora crassa macroconidia form germ tubes that are involved in colony establishment and conidial anastomosis tubes (CATs) that fuse to form interconnected networks of conidial germlings. Nuclear and cytoskeletal behaviors were analyzed in macroconidia, germ tubes, and CATs in strains that expressed fluorescently labeled proteins. Heterokaryons formed by CAT fusion provided a rapid method f...
متن کاملJNK and decapentaplegic signaling control adhesiveness and cytoskeleton dynamics during thorax closure in Drosophila.
One of the fundamental events in metamorphosis in insects is the replacement of larval tissues by imaginal tissues. Shortly after pupariation the imaginal discs evaginate to assume their positions at the surface of the prepupal animal. This is a very precise process that is only beginning to be understood. In Drosophila, during embryonic dorsal closure, the epithelial cells push the amnioserosa...
