Actin-latrunculin A structure and function. Differential modulation of actin-binding protein function by latrunculin A.
Latrunculin A is used extensively as an agent to sequester monomeric actin in living cells. We hypothesize that additional activities of latrunculin A may be important for its biological activity. Our data are consistent with the formation of a 1:1 stoichiometric complex with an equilibrium dissociation constant of 0.2 to 0.4 micrometer and provide no evidence that the actin-latrunculin A compl...
متن کاملStructure and function of a HECT domain ubiquitin-binding site.
The Rsp5 ubiquitin ligase contains a non-covalent binding site for ubiquitin within the amino-terminal lobe (N-lobe) of the HECT domain, and the X-ray crystal structure of the HECT-ubiquitin complex has been determined. Hydrophobic patch residues of ubiquitin (L8, I44, V70) were crucial for interaction with Rsp5, and amino-acid alterations at the Rsp5-binding interface resulted in defects in po...
متن کاملEvolutionarily conserved alternative pre-mRNA splicing regulates structure and function of the spectrin-actin binding domain of erythroid protein 4.1.
A developmental alternative splicing switch, involving exon 16 of protein 4.1 pre-mRNA, occurs during mammalian erythropoiesis. By controlling expression of a 21-amino acid peptide required for high-affinity interaction of protein 4.1 with spectrin and actin, this switch helps to regulate erythrocyte membrane mechanical stability. Here we show that key aspects of protein 4.1 structure and funct...
متن کاملThe nuclear receptor ligand-binding domain: structure and function.
In the past few years our understanding of nuclear receptor action has dramatically improved as a result of the elucidation of the crystal structures of the empty (apo) ligand-binding domains of the nuclear receptor and of complexes formed by the nuclear receptor's ligand-binding domain bound to agonists and antagonists. Furthermore, the concomitant identification and functional analysis of co-...
متن کاملUtrophin actin binding domain: analysis of actin binding and cellular targeting.
Utrophin, or dystrophin-related protein, is an autosomal homologue of dystrophin. The protein is apparently ubiquitously expressed and in muscle tissues the expression is developmentally regulated. Since utrophin has a similar domain structure to dystrophin it has been suggested that it could substitute for dystrophin in dystrophic muscle. Like dystrophin, utrophin has been shown to be associat...
