PIP3-dependent macropinocytosis is incompatible with chemotaxis
In eukaryotic chemotaxis, the mechanisms connecting external signals to the motile apparatus remain unclear. The role of the lipid phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP₃) has been particularly controversial. PIP₃ has many cellular roles, notably in growth control and macropinocytosis as well as cell motility. Here we show that PIP₃ is not only unnecessary for Dictyostelium discoideum to...
متن کاملChemotaxis in the Absence of PIP3 Gradients
Chemotaxing neutrophils and Dictyostelium amoebae produce in their plasma membranes the signaling lipid PI(3,4,5)P3 (PIP3) in gradients, which are orientated with the external chemotactic gradient and have been proposed to act as an internal compass, guiding movement of the cell. Evidence for and against this idea exists, but in all cases it depends on the use of inhibitors or gene knockouts, w...
متن کاملPosition: BPMN Is Incompatible with ACM
The role of two-dimensional process graphing in Adaptive Case Management (ACM) is examined. Three design criteria are identified for ACM that were never considered for BPMN. The question for discussion is whether these requirements eliminate all kinds of flow-chart type languages from consideration for use as a process modeling language for users of ACM.
متن کاملPIP3-Independent Activation of TorC2 and PKB at the Cell's Leading Edge Mediates Chemotaxis
BACKGROUND Studies show that high phosphotidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PIP(3)) promotes cytoskeletal rearrangements and alters cell motility and chemotaxis, possibly through activation of protein kinase Bs (PKBs). However, chemotaxis can still occur in the absence of PIP(3), and the identities of the PIP(3)-independent pathways remain unknown. RESULTS Here, we outline a PIP(3)-independen...
متن کاملEbolavirus Is Internalized into Host Cells via Macropinocytosis in a Viral Glycoprotein-Dependent Manner
Ebolavirus (EBOV) is an enveloped, single-stranded, negative-sense RNA virus that causes severe hemorrhagic fever with mortality rates of up to 90% in humans and nonhuman primates. Previous studies suggest roles for clathrin- or caveolae-mediated endocytosis in EBOV entry; however, ebolavirus virions are long, filamentous particles that are larger than the plasma membrane invaginations that cha...
