Binding of phosphate, aluminum fluoride, or beryllium fluoride to F-actin inhibits severing by gelsolin.
Actin exhibits ATPase activity of unknown function that increases when monomers polymerize into filaments. Differences in the kinetics of ATP hydrolysis and the release of the hydrolysis products ADP and inorganic phosphate suggest that phosphate-rich domains exist in newly polymerized filaments. We examined whether the enrichment of phosphate on filamentous ADP-actin might modulate the severin...
متن کاملStructural Basis for pH-mediated Regulation of F-actin Severing by Gelsolin Domain 1
Six-domain gelsolin regulates actin structural dynamics through its abilities to sever, cap and uncap F-actin. These activities are modulated by various cellular parameters like Ca2+ and pH. Until now, only the molecular activation mechanism of gelsolin by Ca2+ has been understood relatively well. The fragment comprising the first domain and six residues from the linker region into the second d...
متن کاملDrebrin inhibits cofilin-induced severing of F-actin.
Molecular cross-talk between neuronal drebrin A and cofilin is believed to be a part of the activity-dependent cytoskeleton-modulating pathway in dendritic spines. Impairments in this pathway are implicated also in synaptic dysfunction in Alzheimer's disease, Down syndrome, epilepsy, and normal aging. However, up to now the molecular interplay between cofilin and drebrin has not been elucidated...
متن کاملDirect observation of actin filament severing by gelsolin and binding by gCap39 and CapZ
Dynamic behavior of actin filaments in cells is the basis of many different cellular activities. Remodeling of the actin filament network involves polymerization and depolymerization of the filaments. Proteins that regulate these behaviors include proteins that sever and/or cap actin filaments. This report presents direct observation of severing of fluorescently-labeled actin filaments. Coversl...
متن کاملFormation of the stable myosin-ADP-aluminum fluoride and myosin-ADP-beryllium fluoride complexes and their analysis using 19F NMR.
The effects of aluminum fluoride and beryllium fluoride on smooth muscle myosin and its subfragments were studied. Mg(2+)-ATPase activity was inhibited in the presence of aluminum fluoride (beryllium fluoride). [3H]ADP bound to heavy meromyosin (HMM) in the presence of aluminum fluoride (beryllium fluoride) and was not dissociated after 3 days of dialysis demonstrating that [3H]ADP was trapped ...
