Dynamin: a microtubule-associated GTP-binding protein.
We recently identified dynamin as a third nucleotide-sensitive microtubule-associated protein in brain tissue, in addition to kinesin and cytoplasmic dynein. Molecular cloning analysis has revealed that dynamin contains the three consensus elements characteristic of GTP-binding proteins, and biochemical results support a role for GTP in dynamin function. Dynamin is also homologous to the Mx pro...
متن کاملOccludin 1B, a variant of the tight junction protein occludin.
Occludin and claudin are the major integral membrane components of the mammalian tight junction. Although more than 11 distinct claudins have been identified, only 1 occludin transcript has been reported thus far. Therefore, we searched by reverse transcription-PCR for occludin-related sequences in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) mRNA and identified a transcript encoding an alternatively splic...
متن کاملZonula occludens toxin modulates tight junctions through protein kinase C-dependent actin reorganization, in vitro.
The intracellular signaling involved in the mechanism of action of zonula occludens toxin (ZOT) was studied using several in vitro and ex vivo models. ZOT showed a selective effect among various cell lines tested, suggesting that it may interact with a specific receptor, whose surface expression on various cells differs. When tested in IEC6 cell monolayers, ZOT-containing supernatants induced a...
متن کامل58K, a microtubule-binding Golgi protein, is a formiminotransferase cyclodeaminase.
58K was previously identified as a rat liver protein that binds microtubules in vitro and is associated with the cytoplasmic surface of the Golgi apparatus in vivo (Bloom, G. S., and Brashear, T. A. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264, 16083-16092). We now report that 58K is a formiminotransferase cyclodeaminase (FTCD), a bifunctional enzyme that catalyzes two consecutive steps in the modification of tet...
متن کاملMicrotubule-associated protein 1B: a neuronal binding partner for gigaxonin
In the course of reevaluating the data published in this manuscript, the authors detected inappropriate manipulation in the digital images in two of the figures (Fig. 1 and Fig. 3 D). The figures have been reproduced from the original data and are reprinted here. iant axonal neuropathy (GAN), an autosomal re-cessive disorder caused by mutations in GAN , is characterized cytopathologically by cy...
