Keratin 8 phosphorylation regulates keratin reorganization and migration of epithelial tumor cells.
Cell migration and invasion are largely dependent on the complex organization of the various cytoskeletal components. Whereas the role of actin filaments and microtubules in cell motility is well established, the role of intermediate filaments in this process is incompletely understood. Organization and structure of the keratin cytoskeleton, which consists of heteropolymers of at least one type...
متن کاملKeratin 8 overexpression promotes mouse Mallory body formation
Keratins 8 and 18 (K8/18) are major constituents of Mallory bodies (MBs), which are hepatocyte cytoplasmic inclusions seen in several liver diseases. K18-null but not K8-null or heterozygous mice form MBs, which indicates that K8 is important for MB formation. Early stages in MB genesis include K8/18 hyperphosphorylation and overexpression. We used transgenic mice that overexpress K8, K18, or K...
متن کاملKeratin 8 phosphorylation by p38 kinase regulates cellular keratin filament reorganization: modulation by a keratin 1-like disease causing mutation.
Keratin 8 (K8) serine 73 occurs within a relatively conserved type II keratin motif ((68)NQSLLSPL) and becomes phosphorylated in cultured cells and organs during mitosis, cell stress, and apoptosis. Here we show that Ser-73 is exclusively phosphorylated in vitro by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. In cells, Ser-73 phosphorylation occurs in association with p38 kinase activation and is inhi...
متن کاملA disease- and phosphorylation-related nonmechanical function for keratin 8
Keratin 8 (K8) variants predispose to human liver injury via poorly understood mechanisms. We generated transgenic mice that overexpress the human disease-associated K8 Gly61-to-Cys (G61C) variant and showed that G61C predisposes to liver injury and apoptosis and dramatically inhibits K8 phosphorylation at serine 73 (S73) via stress-activated kinases. This led us to generate mice that overexpre...
متن کاملHeat shock protein 70 expression, keratin phosphorylation and Mallory body formation in hepatocytes from griseofulvin-intoxicated mice
BACKGROUND: Keratins are members of the intermediate filaments (IFs) proteins, which constitute one of the three major cytoskeletal protein families. In hepatocytes, keratin 8 and 18 (K8/18) are believed to play a protective role against mechanical and toxic stress. Post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and glycosylation are thought to modulate K8/18 functions. Treatment of m...
