Follow the Monomer
Capping proteins limit actin filament growth, but paradoxically increase actin-based cell motility. This has been attributed to funneling of actin monomers to the filament ends that remain uncapped. Using a reconstituted motility system, Akin and Mullins (2008) now demonstrate that filament capping increases Arp2/3-based nucleation and branching, rather than elevating the rate of filament elong...
متن کاملKinetics of the monomer-monomer surface reaction model.
The two-dimensional monomer-monomer (AB) surface reaction model without diffusion is considered for infinitesimal, finite, and infinite reaction rates k. For equal reactant adsorption rates, in all cases, simulations reveal the same form of slow poisoning, associated with clustering of reactants. This behavior is also the same as that found in simulations of the two-dimensional voter model stud...
متن کاملEnhanced monomer-monomer interactions can suppress the recombination deficiency of the recA142 allele.
The RecA142 protein, in which valine is substituted for isoleucine-225, is defective for genetic recombination in vivo and for DNA strand exchange activity in vitro under conventional growth and reaction conditions respectively. However, we show that mildly acidic conditions restore both the in vitro DNA strand exchange activity and the in vivo function of RecA142 protein, suggesting that recom...
متن کاملThe three species monomer - monomer model in the reaction - controlled limit
We study the one dimensional three species monomer-monomer reaction model in the reaction controlled limit using mean-field theory and dynamic Monte Carlo simulations. The phase diagram consists of a reactive steady state bordered by three equivalent adsorbing phases where the surface is saturated with one monomer species. The transitions from the reactive phase are all continuous, while the tr...
متن کاملPerturbation of the Monomer–Monomer Interfaces of the Benzoylformate Decarboxylase Tetramer
The X-ray structure of benzoylformate decarboxylase (BFDC) from Pseudomonas putida ATCC 12633 shows it to be a tetramer. This was believed to be typical of all thiamin diphosphate-dependent decarboxylases until recently when the structure of KdcA, a branched-chain 2-keto acid decarboxylase from Lactococcus lactis, showed it to be a homodimer. This lent credence to earlier unfolding experiments ...
