Regulation of the actin cytoskeleton-plasma membrane interplay by phosphoinositides.
The plasma membrane and the underlying cortical actin cytoskeleton undergo continuous dynamic interplay that is responsible for many essential aspects of cell physiology. Polymerization of actin filaments against cellular membranes provides the force for a number of cellular processes such as migration, morphogenesis, and endocytosis. Plasma membrane phosphoinositides (especially phosphatidylin...

متن کاملRegulation of the actin cytoskeleton by Ephrin - B signalling
Ephrin ligands and their Eph receptors play an essential role in angiogenesis during development. Both ephrins and Eph receptors are membrane-tethered proteins and their interaction at sites of cell-cell contact triggers bi-directional signalling, with signals transduced from the receptor (forward signalling) and ligand (reverse signalling). I have used two model systems to study ephrin-B2 sign...
متن کاملRegulation of actin cytoskeleton by Rap1 binding to RacGEF1.
Rap1 is rapidly and transiently activated in response to chemoattractant stimulation and helps establish cell polarity by locally modulating cytoskeletons. Here, we investigated the mechanisms by which Rap1 controls actin cytoskeletal reorganization in Dictyostelium and found that Rap1 interacts with RacGEF1 in vitro and stimulates F-actin polymerization at the sites where Rap1 is activated upo...
متن کاملRegulation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase by the actin cytoskeleton.
In the present study, the association of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) with the actin cytoskeleton in pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAEC) was examined. We found that the protein contents of eNOS, actin, and caveolin-1 were significantly higher in the caveolar fraction of plasma membranes than in the noncaveolar fraction of plasma membranes in PAEC. Immunoprecipitation of eNOS f...
