Phosphorylation of the vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein regulates its interaction with actin.
The vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) is a major substrate for cyclic nucleotide-dependent kinases in platelets and other cardiovascular cells. It promotes actin nucleation and binds to actin filaments in vitro and associates with stress fibers in cells. The VASP-actin interaction is salt-sensitive, arguing for electrostatic interactions. Hence, phosphorylation may significantly alte...
متن کاملContribution of Ena/VASP proteins to intracellular motility of listeria requires phosphorylation and proline-rich core but not F-actin binding or multimerization.
The Listeria model system has been essential for the identification and characterization of key regulators of the actin cytoskeleton such as the Arp2/3 complex and Ena/vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) proteins. Although the role of Ena/VASP proteins in Listeria motility has been extensively studied, little is known about the contributions of their domains and phosphorylation state t...
متن کاملRegulation of vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein phosphorylation and interaction with Abl by protein kinase A and cell adhesion.
Members of the vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) family are important regulators of actin cytoskeletal dynamics whose functions and protein-protein interactions are regulated by phosphorylation by the cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Herein, we show that phosphorylation of VASP is dynamically regulated by cellular adhesion to extracellular matrix. Detachment of cells stimulated P...
متن کاملPKCdelta regulates collagen-induced platelet aggregation through inhibition of VASP-mediated filopodia formation.
Protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta) has been shown by pharmacologic approaches to negatively regulate collagen-induced platelet aggregation. Here we addressed the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying this negative regulation. Using PKCdelta-/- platelets, we show that the mechanism did not involve altered inside-out signaling to integrin alpha(IIb)beta3 and did not affect early signaling ev...
متن کاملAMP-activated protein kinase impairs endothelial actin cytoskeleton assembly by phosphorylating vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein.
Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein (VASP) is an actin regulatory protein that links signaling pathways to remodeling of the cytoskeleton. VASP functions are modulated by protein kinases, which phosphorylate the sites Ser-157, Ser-239, and Thr-278. The kinase responsible for Thr-278 phosphorylation, biological functions of the phosphorylation, and association with disease states have remained...
