Here we photobleaching (FRAP) experiments show that PTP-BL show, by transient expression of modular protein domains confinement is based on a dynamic steady state and that of PTP-BL in epithelial MDCK cells, that the presence of complete redistribution of the protein may occur within 20 a FERM domain in the protein is both necessary and minutes. Our observations suggest that relocation is sufficient for its targeting to the apical side of epithelial mediated via a cytosolic pool, rather than by lateral cells. Furthermore, immuno-electron microscopy on stable movement. Finally, we show that PTP-BL phosphatase expressing MDCK pools, that were obtained using an domains are involved in homotypic interactions, as EGFP-based cell sorting protocol, revealed that FERM demonstrated by yeast two-hybrid assays.

Structural data on the RPTPµ membrane proximal PTP interactions, metabolism, gene transcription, and the immune domain, however, show that this model might not be response (Hunter, 1996).

It is now well established that subcellular micro-compartments may control PTP activity and receptor PTKs are activated by an intermolecular mechanism substrate specificity. In this light, the existence of a variety of upon ligand-induced dimerization (Lemmon and Schlessinger, modular protein domains in cytosolic PTPs, that may function 1994). Cytoplasmic PTKs, on the other hand, are activated by as ‘zip codes’ by directing the protein to the correct cellular both intra- and intermolecular mechanisms (Thomas and ‘address’ (Mauro and Dixon, 1994), is intriguing. Candidate Brugge, 1997). Much less is known regarding the processes domains that may regulate activity and specificity are that antagonize the effects of PTKs or, for that matter, the particularly abundant in the large cytosolic protein tyrosine functional activation of PTPs. Recent data suggest that for phosphatase PTP-BL (Hendriks et al., 1995) or RIP (Chida et PTPs similar mechanisms as for PTKs do exist (reviewed by al., 1995), which is the mouse homologue of human PTP- Weiss and Schlessinger, 1998). For example, ligand-induced BAS/PTPL1/PTP1E/FAP-1 (Banville et al., 1994; Maekawa et dimerization of an EGFR-CD45 chimera was found to inhibit al., 1994; Saras et al., 1994; Sato et al., 1995). The PTP activity and TCR signaling (Majeti et al., 1998). The approximately 250 kDa protein, that is expressed mainly in crystal structure of the membrane-proximal PTP domain of the epithelia (Hendriks et al., 1995; Cuppen et al., 1998; Thomas 3300 E.

Interaction between plasma membrane, cytoskeleton and proper anchorage influence regular cellular processes. The needed regulated connection between the membrane and the underlying actin cytoskeleton is therefore made available by the ERM (Ezrin, Radixin, and Moesin) family of proteins. ERM proteins also afford the required environment for the diffusion of signals in reactions to extracellular signals. Other studies have confirmed the importance of ERM proteins in different mode organisms and in cultured cells to emphasize the generation and maintenance of specific domains of the plasma membrane. An essential attribute of almost all cells are the specialized membrane domains.

  • FAK in Cancer: Mechanistic Findings and Clinical Applications
    REVIEWS FAK in cancer: mechanistic findings and clinical applications Florian J. Sulzmaier, Christine Jean and David D. Schlaepfer Abstract | Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinase that is overexpressed and activated in several advanced-stage solid cancers. FAK promotes tumour progression and metastasis through effects on cancer cells, as well as stromal cells of the tumour microenvironment. The kinase-dependent and kinase-independent functions of FAK control cell movement, invasion, survival, gene expression and cancer stem cell self-renewal. Small molecule FAK inhibitors decrease tumour growth and metastasis in several preclinical models and have initial clinical activity in patients with limited adverse events. In this Review, we discuss FAK signalling effects on both tumour and stromal cell biology that provide rationale and support for future therapeutic opportunities.

Accepted: December 2, 2019 Abstract Ezrin, radixin, moesin, and merlin are cytoskeletal proteins, whose functions are specific to metazoans. They participate in cell cortex rearrangement, including cell–cell contact formation, and play an important role in cancer progression. Here, we have performed a comprehensive phylogenetic analysis of the proteins spanning 87 species. The results describe a possible mechanism for the protein family origin in the root of Metazoa, paralogs diversification in vertebrates, and acquisition of novel functions, including tumor suppression. In addition, a merlin paralog, present in most vertebrates but lost in mammals, has been described here for the first time. We have also highlighted a set of amino acid variations within the conserved motifs as the candidates for determining physiological differences between ERM paralogs.

    BIO 5440 Burr, 2012 I. Non-muscle Actin: Bundles and Networks 1. Actin bundles: (“Plus” ends are attached to membranes) a) “Tight bundles”: bundled by fascin [fibroblasts], or villin, fimbrin [microvilli of intestinal epithelial cells: fig 17-4, p716]. (Protein structures listed in figure 17-18, p 729) Examples: fibroblasts: lamellipodia, microspikes (10 µm), filopodia (= long microspikes: 50µm) epithelial cells: Microvilli [ fig 17-4, p716] b) “Loose bundles” (contractile): bundled by α-actinin [leaves room in between parallel actin filaments for the insertion of myosin I or II] Examples: (i) fibroblast “stress fibers” (fig 19-32, p832) ( ⇒ focal adhesions/“3D” adhesions) (fig 19-33, p834; fibronectin (Fn) Fn receptor (an Integrin) Focal adhesion kinase (fak) pp. 10-12 of handout Src kinase vinculin, talin, (ii) contractile ring in mitotic cells (fig 17-34, p742) (iii) adherens belt in epithelial cells (fig 17-4, p716) 2. Actin networks: filamin [crosslinks f-actin, leading to gel formation] (fig 17-18, p 729), versus gelsolin [Ca++-activated severing of f-actin, leading to sol formation] Examples: cell cortex; gel-sol conversions in amoeba pseudopod (Tom Stossel, American Scientist, 78, 408-423 [1990]: pp 17a,17b of handout) 3. Actin filaments are linked to membrane proteins Examples: dystrophin; the actin-spectrin network underlying the red blood cell membrane II. Polymerization Kinetics of Actin, in vitro. (p24 of handout) 1. Critical concentration for polymerization (Cc) 2. Plus and minus ends 3. Significance of ATP hydrolysis: Cc for plus end can be different from Cc for minus end 4. Treadmilling 5. Drugs affecting polymerization/depolymerization of actin: cytochalasin (destabilizes) & phalloidin (stabilizes) BIO 5440 J.G.
