Nascent Adhesions: From Fluctuations to a Hierarchical Organization
نویسندگان
چکیده
Integrins assemble a complex network of molecular interactions at cell-matrix adhesion sites. Fluorescence correlation microscopy has now shed light on the spatial, temporal and numerical distributions of protein complexes during assembly and stabilization of nascent adhesions.

FAK promotes recruitment of talin to nascent adhesions to control cell motility
Cell migration is a dynamic process that involves the continuous formation, maturation, and turnover of matrix-cell adhesion sites. New (nascent) adhesions form at the protruding cell edge in a tension-independent manner and are comprised of integrin receptors, signaling, and cytoskeletal-associated proteins. Integrins recruit focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and the cytoskeletal protein talin to na...
متن کاملSelf-Organization of Muscle Cell Structure and Function
The organization of muscle is the product of functional adaptation over several length scales spanning from the sarcomere to the muscle bundle. One possible strategy for solving this multiscale coupling problem is to physically constrain the muscle cells in microenvironments that potentiate the organization of their intracellular space. We hypothesized that boundary conditions in the extracellu...
متن کاملCross-correlated fluctuation analysis reveals phosphorylation-regulated paxillin-FAK complexes in nascent adhesions.
We used correlation methods to detect and quantify interactions between paxillin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) in migrating cells. Cross-correlation raster-scan image correlation spectroscopy revealed that wild-type paxillin and the phosphorylation-inhibiting paxillin mutant Y31F-Y118F do not interact with FAK in the cytosol but a phosphomimetic mutant of paxillin, Y31E-Y118E, does. By extend...
متن کاملNudel and FAK as Antagonizing Strength Modulators of Nascent Adhesions through Paxillin
Adhesion and detachment are coordinated critical steps during cell migration. Conceptually, efficient migration requires both effective stabilization of membrane protrusions at the leading edge via nascent adhesions and their successful persistence during retraction of the trailing side via disruption of focal adhesions. As nascent adhesions are much smaller in size than focal adhesions, they a...
متن کاملSpatial mapping of integrin interactions and dynamics during cell migration by image correlation microscopy.
Image correlation microscopy methodology was extended and used to determine retrospectively the density, dynamics and interactions of alpha5-integrin in migrating cells. Alpha5-integrin is present in submicroscopic clusters containing 3-4 integrins before it is discernibly organized. The integrin in nascent adhesions, as identified by the presence of paxillin, is approximately 1.4 times more co...
