Competition between LIM-binding domains.
LMO (LIM-only) and LIM-HD (LIM-homeodomain) proteins form a family of proteins that is required for myriad developmental processes and which can contribute to diseases such as T-cell leukaemia and breast cancer. The four LMO and 12 LIM-HD proteins in mammals are expressed in a combinatorial manner in many cell types, forming a transcriptional 'LIM code'. The proteins all contain a pair of close...
متن کاملPPIP5K1 modulates ligand competition between diphosphoinositol polyphosphates and PtdIns(3,4,5)P3 for polyphosphoinositide-binding domains.
We describe new signalling consequences for PPIP5K1 (diphosphoinositol pentakisphosphate kinase type 1)-mediated phosphorylation of InsP6 and 5-InsP7 to 1-InsP7 and InsP8. In NIH 3T3 cells, either hyperosmotic stress or receptor activation by PDGF (platelet-derived growth factor) promoted translocation of PPIP5K1 from the cytoplasm to the plasma membrane. The PBD1 (polyphosphoinositide-binding ...
متن کاملSingle-stranded DNA-binding proteins regulate the abundance of LIM domain and LIM domain-binding proteins.
The LIM domain-binding protein Ldb1 is an essential cofactor of LIM-homeodomain (LIM-HD) and LIM-only (LMO) proteins in development. The stoichiometry of Ldb1, LIM-HD, and LMO proteins is tightly controlled in the cell and is likely a critical determinant of their biological actions. Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBPs) were recently shown to interact with Ldb1 and are also important in...
متن کاملOrganizing motility: LIM domains, LPP, and smooth muscle migration.
Vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) acquire a highly specialized cytoskeleton during development that is organized for efficient transmission of contractile force. This SMC cytoskeleton must be extensively reorganized to support directed cell migrations that are required for repair of arterial injury. Particularly important in this reorganization process are adaptor proteins that mediate the as...
متن کاملUNC-115, a Conserved Protein with Predicted LIM and Actin-Binding Domains, Mediates Axon Guidance in C. elegans
Axon guidance receptors modulate the growth cone cytoskeleton through signaling pathways that are not well understood. Here, we describe the C. elegans unc-115 gene, which encodes a candidate cytoskeletal linker protein that acts in axon guidance. unc-115 mutants have defects in a subset of axons, particularly as the affected axons change environments during outgrowth. The unc-115 gene encodes ...
