Specificity of the interaction between phosphatidylinositol 4,5‐bisphosphate and the profilin:actin complex
Abstract
Profilactin, the profiling:actin complex, which is present in large amounts in extracts of many types of eukaryotic cells, appears to serve as the precursor of microfilaments. It was reported recently that profilactin interacts specifically with phosphatidylinositol 4,5‐bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P 2) (Lassing and Lindberg: Nature 314:472–474, 1985.) The present paper describes in detail the behaviour of profilactin and profilin in the presence of different types of phospholipids and neutral lipids under different conditions. PtdIns(4,5)P 2 is the only phospholipid found so far which in the presence of 80 mM KC1 and at Ca 2+ concentrations below 10−5 M effectively dissociates profilactin with the resulting polymerization of the actin. Phosphatidylinositol 4‐monophosphate exhibits some activity but phosphatidylinositol is inactive. Both calf spleen profilin and profilin from human platelets form stable complexes with PtdIns(4,5)P 2 micelles. PtdIns(4,5)P 2 is active also when incorporated together with other phospholipids in mixed vesicles.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
