Myosin VI: two distinct roles in endocytosis.
Actin is found at the cortex of the cell where endocytosis occurs, but does it play a role in this essential process? Recent studies on the unconventional myosin, myosin VI, an actin-based molecular motor, provide compelling evidence that this myosin and therefore actin is involved in two distinct steps of endocytosis in higher eukaryotes: the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles and the movem...
متن کاملMultiple roles for kinases in DNA replication.
DNA replication is carried out by the replisome, which includes several proteins that are targets of cell-cycle-regulated kinases. The phosphorylation of proteins such as replication protein A, DNA polymerase-alpha and -delta, replication factor C, flap endonuclease 1 and DNA ligase I leads to their inactivation, suggesting that phosphorylation is important in the prevention of re-replication. ...
متن کاملRoles of Phosphorylation in DNA Replication
Phosphorylation of proteins by protein kinases and dephosphorylation by protein phosphatases represents one of the most common, versatile, and perhaps confusing regulatory mechanisms in eukaryotic cells. Many, perhaps most, proteins in the eukaryotic nucleus are phosphoproteins, among them the proteins involved in DNA replication and its control. The importance of protein phosphorylation as a r...
متن کاملRoles of AP-2 in Clathrin-Mediated Endocytosis
BACKGROUND The notion that AP-2 clathrin adaptor is an essential component of an endocytic clathrin coat appears to conflict with recent observations that substantial AP-2 depletion, using RNA interference with synthesis of AP-2 subunits, fails to block uptake of certain ligands known to internalize through a clathrin-based pathway. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS We report here the use of in ...
متن کاملIFI16 senses DNA forms of the lentiviral replication cycle and controls HIV-1 replication.
Replication of lentiviruses generates different DNA forms, including RNA:DNA hybrids, ssDNA, and dsDNA. Nucleic acids stimulate innate immune responses, and pattern recognition receptors detecting dsDNA have been identified. However, sensors for ssDNA have not been reported, and the ability of RNA:DNA hybrids to stimulate innate immune responses is controversial. Using ssDNAs derived from HIV-1...
