Endocytosis: Actin in the Driving Seat

نویسنده

  • Kathryn R. Ayscough
چکیده

Endocytosis is an essential eukaryotic process which has been reported to require a functional actin cytoskeleton. New data obtained using the model yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae significantly advances our understanding of the interface between the endocytic machinery and actin.

Impact of vehicle seat back inclination on occupational driving safety

This study determined effect of automobile seat backrest inclination on lattisimus dorsi muscle electromyographic (EMG) activity. Myoelectric activity was determined at two seat backrest angles (90 degrees and 100 degrees inclinations).  Twenty-one (21) participants were engaged in the study. Electromygraphic activity at 90 degrees inclination had slope value of -0.065 mV/minute while ...

  Background and aims: Car seats have a significant impact on driver comfort and reduction of postural load on the low back of the driver. The purpose of this study was to compare three common types of car seat in Iran on the driver's fatigue and muscle discomfort. Methods: Ten participants completed 2 hours of simulated driving for each of the three type of car seat in different days ...

Distinct Actin and Lipid Binding Sites in Ysc84 Are Required during Early Stages of Yeast Endocytosis

During endocytosis in S. cerevisiae, actin polymerization is proposed to provide the driving force for invagination against the effects of turgor pressure. In previous studies, Ysc84 was demonstrated to bind actin through a conserved N-terminal domain. However, full length Ysc84 could only bind actin when its C-terminal SH3 domain also bound to the yeast WASP homologue Las17. Live cell-imaging ...

Actin and Endocytosis in Budding Yeast

Endocytosis, the process whereby the plasma membrane invaginates to form vesicles, is essential for bringing many substances into the cell and for membrane turnover. The mechanism driving clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) involves > 50 different protein components assembling at a single location on the plasma membrane in a temporally ordered and hierarchal pathway. These proteins perform prec...

Structure of the actin-depolymerizing factor homology domain in complex with actin

Actin dynamics provide the driving force for many cellular processes including motility and endocytosis. Among the central cytoskeletal regulators are actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin, which depolymerizes actin filaments, and twinfilin, which sequesters actin monomers and caps filament barbed ends. Both interact with actin through an ADF homology (ADF-H) domain, which is also found in ...
