Actin Out: Regulation of the Synaptic Cytoskeleton.
The small size of dendritic spines belies the elaborate role they play in excitatory synaptic transmission and ultimately complex behaviors. The cytoskeletal architecture of the spine is predominately composed of actin filaments. These filaments, which at first glance might appear simple, are also surprisingly complex. They dynamically assemble into different structures and serve as a platform ...
متن کاملRegulation of the Actin Cytoskeleton, and Mitogenesis
We have examined the roles of the p85/ p110 a and hVPS34 phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3 9 -kinases in cellular signaling using inhibitory isoform-specific antibodies. We raised anti-hVPS34 and anti-p110 a antibodies that specifically inhibit recombinant hVPS34 and p110 a , respectively, in vitro. We used the antibodies to study cellular processes that are sensitive to lowdose wortmannin. The antib...

متن کاملOccludin regulates actin cytoskeleton in endothelial cells.
Occludin is a major membrane component of tight junctions of endothelial cells, though the role of this molecule is not fully understood. RLE cells, derived from rat lung endothelial cells, express a negligible level of occludin with clear expression of E-cadherin and ZO-1 at cell junctions. Introduction of occludin by transfection induced clear junctional expression of occludin with few or no ...
متن کاملDynamics of Mitochondria and Actin Cytoskeleton Interactions in Budding Yeast
In the budding yeast, S. cerevisiae, mitochondrial distribution involves movements of the organelle from the mother cell to the bud (anterograde movement) and from the bud to the mother (retrograde movement). Both types of movements require actin cables, dynamic bundles of F-actin filaments, which undergo continuous retrograde flow from the bud into the mother and provide tracks for mitochondri...
