Phosphoregulation of the WAVE regulatory complex and signal integration
Open accessAbstract
The WAVE2 regulatory complex (WRC) induces actin polymerization by activating the actin nucleator Arp2/3. Polymerizing actin pushes against the cell membrane and induces dramatic edge protrusions. In order to properly control such changes in cell morphology and function, cells have evolved multiple methods to tightly regulate WRC and Arp2/3 activity in space and time. Of these mechanisms, phosphorylation plays a fundamental role in transmitting extracellular and intracellular signals to the WRC and the actin cytoskeleton. This review discusses the phosphorylation-based regulatory inputs into the WRC. Signaling pathways that respond to growth factors, chemokines, hormones, and extracellular matrix converge upon the WAVE and ABI components of the WRC. The Abl, Src, ERK, and PKA kinases promote complex activation through a WRC conformation change that permits interaction with the Arp2/3 complex and through WRC translocation to the cell edge. The neuron-specific CDK5 and constitutively active CK2 kinases inhibit WRC activation. These regulatory signals are integrated in space and time as they coalesce upon the WRC. The combination of WRC phosphorylation events and WRC activity is controlled by stimulus, cell type, and cell cycle-specific pathway activation and via pathway cross-inhibition and cross-activation.

Phosphorylation is key to maintaining stability and function of ABI family proteins.
“It is known that phosphorylation is key to maintaining the stability and function of ABI family of proteins [37, 80].”
From Deletion of Abi3/Gngt2 influences age-progressive amyloid β and tau pathologies in distinctive ways (2022) · cites this paper as [37]
Section 2.1 (Abl) reports that Abl phosphorylation promotes Drosophila ABI1 stability, while oncogenic Abl induces ABI2 degradation; it also cautions that Abl activity alone is unlikely to regulate ABI stability. Section 3.2 (ERK) links ABI phosphorylation to WRC activation. These passages support roles for phosphorylation in ABI stability and function, but not the unqualified claim that it maintains the stability of ABI family proteins generally. Page numbers were not provided in the passages. (LLM, conf=0.86)

“However, these ERK or JNK phosphorylation sites are not present in WAVE1 or WAVE336.”

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.
