Expression of dominant-negative and chimeric subunits reveals an essential role for β1 integrin during myelination
Myelination represents a remarkable example of cell specialization and cell-cell interaction in development. During this process, axons are wrapped by concentric layers of cell membrane derived either from central nervous system (CNS) oligodendrocytes or peripheral nervous system Schwann cells. In the CNS, oligodendrocytes elaborate a membranous extension with an area of more than 1000 times th...
متن کاملCharacterization of β1 Integrin Cytoplasmic Domain Binding Proteins
Article Chronology:Received 28 March 2006Revised version received6 June 2006Accepted 13 June 2006Available online 29 June 2006The three Kindlins are a novel family of focal adhesion proteins. The Kindlin-1 (URP1) gene ismutated in Kindler syndrome, the first skin blistering disease affecting actin attachment inbasal keratinocytes. Kindlin-2 (Mig-2), the best stud...
متن کاملCytoplasmic coat proteins involved in endosome function
Endosomes are intermediates for a complex series of sorting and transport events that occur during receptor-mediated endocytosis. These involve the recognition of targeting determinants on the cytoplasmic domains of many membrane proteins as well as the formations of specific transport vesicles. Accordingly, endosome function is likely to be governed by the regulated assembly of cytoplasmic coa...
متن کاملDominant negative effect of cytoplasmic actin isoproteins on cardiomyocyte cytoarchitecture and function
The intracompartmental sorting and functional consequences of ectopic expression of the six vertebrate actin isoforms was investigated in different types of cultured cells. In transfected fibroblasts all isoactin species associated with the endogenous microfilament cytoskeleton, even though cytoplasmic actins also showed partial localization to peripheral submembranous sites. Functional and str...
متن کاملModulation of β1A Integrin Functions by Tyrosine Residues in the β1 Cytoplasmic Domain
beta1A integrin subunits with point mutations of the cytoplasmic domain were expressed in fibroblasts derived from beta1-null stem cells. beta1A in which one or both of the tyrosines of the two NPXY motifs (Y783, Y795) were changed to phenylalanines formed active alpha5 beta1 and alpha6 beta1 integrins that mediated cell adhesion and supported assembly of fibronectin. Mutation of the proline in...
