Fesselin, a synaptopodin-like protein, stimulates actin nucleation and polymerization.
Fesselin is a proline-rich actin binding protein that has recently been isolated from smooth muscle [Leinweber, B. D., Fredricksen, R. S., Hoffman, D. R., and Chalovich, J. M. (1999) J. Muscle Res. Cell Motil. 20, 539-545]. Fesselin is similar to synaptopodin [Mundel, P., Heid, H. W., Mundel, T. M., Krüger, M., Reiser, J., and Kriz, W. (1997) J. Cell Biol. 139, 193-204] in terms of its size, is...
متن کاملMechanical forces facilitate actin polymerization at focal adhesions in a zyxin-dependent manner.
We examined the effects of mechanical forces on actin polymerization at focal adhesions (FAs). Actin polymerization at FAs was assessed by introducing fluorescence-labeled actin molecules into permeabilized fibroblasts cultured on fibronectin. When cell contractility was inhibited by the myosin-II inhibitor blebbistatin, actin polymerization at FAs was diminished, whereas alpha(5)beta(1) integr...
متن کاملNitric oxide stimulates ADP ribosylation of actin in association with the inhibition of actin polymerization in human neutrophils.
In these studies we provide conclusive evidence that (beta/gamma) actin present in human neutrophils is a substrate for nitric oxide (NO)-dependent ADP ribosylation and that this modification is associated with the inhibition of actin polymerization. A 43-kDa substrate for NO-dependent ADP ribosylation was identified as actin by four methods: (1) comigration with the botulinum C2 toxin substrat...
متن کاملPolymerization of ADP-actin
Using hexokinase, glucose, and ATP to vary reversibly the concentrations of ADP and ATP in solution and bound to Acanthamoeba actin, I measured the relative critical concentrations and elongation rate constants for ATP-actin and ADP-actin in 50 mM KCl, 1 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.1 mM nucleotide, 0.1 mM CaCl2, 10 mM imidazole, pH 7. By both steady-state and elongation rate methods, the critical co...
متن کاملNeurite outgrowth is driven by actin polymerization even in the presence of actin polymerization inhibitors
Actin polymerization is a universal mechanism to drive plasma membrane protrusion in motile cells. One apparent exception to this rule is continuing, or even accelerated outgrowth of neuronal processes in the presence of actin polymerization inhibitors. This fact together with a key role of microtubule dynamics in neurite outgrowth led to the concept that microtubules directly drive plasma memb...
