Localized Stabilization of Microtubules by Integrin- and FAK-Facilitated Rho Signaling

Palazzo, Alexander F., Eng, Christina H., Schlaepfer, David D., Marcantonio, Eugene E., Gundersen, Gregg G.·2004·Science

Abstract

Microtubule (MT) stabilization is regulated by the small guanosine triphosphate (GTP)–binding protein Rho and its effector, mammalian homolog of Diaphanous (mDia), in migrating cells, but factors responsible for localized stabilization at the leading edge are unknown. We report that integrin-mediated activation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) at the leading edge is required for MT stabilization by the Rho-mDia signaling pathway in mouse fibroblasts. MT stabilization also involved FAK-regulated localization of a lipid raft marker, ganglioside G M1 , to the leading edge. The integrin-FAK signaling pathway may facilitate Rho-mDia signaling through G M1 , or through a specialized membrane domain containing G M1 , to stabilize MTs in the leading edge of migrating cells.

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.
