Integrins are alphabeta transmembrane receptors that function in key cellular processes, including cell adhesion, differentiation, and extracellular matrix deposition through interactions with extracellular, membrane, and cytoplasmic proteins. We previously identified and cloned a muscle beta1 integrin cytoplasmic binding protein termed MIBP and found that the expression level of MIBP is critical in the decision-making process of terminal myogenic differentiation. We report here that MIBP interacts with the alpha7beta1 integrin but not the alpha5beta1 integrin in C2C12 myoblasts, suggesting an important role of integrin alpha chains in the regulation of the beta1-MIBP interaction. Furthermore, consistent with its selective binding activity toward the alpha7beta1 laminin receptor, we have found that overexpression of MIBP in C2C12 myoblasts resulted in a significant reduction of cell adhesion to laminin and inhibition of laminin matrix deposition. By contrast, neither cell adhesion to fibronectin nor fibronectin matrix deposition was significantly altered in cells overexpressing MIBP. Finally, we show that both the protein level and tyrosine phosphorylation of paxillin, a key signaling molecule involved in the cellular control of myogenic differentiation, are increased by MIBP. These results suggest that MIBP functions in the control of myogenic differentiation by regulating alpha7beta1 integrin-mediated cell interactions with laminin matrix and intracellular signaling through paxillin. 相似文献

Laminin-5 is an important constituent of the basal lamina. The receptors for laminin-5, the integrins alpha3beta1 and alpha6beta4, have been associated with epithelial wound migration and carcinoma invasion. The signal transduction mechanisms that regulate these integrins are not well understood. We report here that the small GTPase Rap1 regulates the adhesion of a number of cell lines to various extracellular matrix proteins including laminin-5. cAMP also mediates cell adhesion and spreading on laminin-5, a process that is independent of protein kinase A but rather dependent on Epac1, a cAMP-dependent exchange factor for Rap. Interestingly, although both alpha3beta1 and alpha6beta4 mediate adhesion to laminin-5, only alpha3beta1-dependent adhesion is dependent on Rap1. These results provide evidence for a function of the cAMP-Epac-Rap1 pathway in cell adhesion and spreading on different extracellular matrix proteins. They also define different roles for the laminin-binding integrins in regulated cell adhesion and subsequent cell spreading. 相似文献

Rapid activation of integrins in response to chemokine-induced signaling serves as a basis for leukocyte arrest on inflamed endothelium. Current models of integrin activation include increased affinity for ligand, molecular extension, and others. In this study, using real-time fluorescence resonance energy transfer to assess alpha(4)beta(1) integrin conformational unbending and fluorescent ligand binding to assess affinity, we report at least four receptor states with independent regulation of affinity and unbending. Moreover, kinetic analysis of chemokine-induced integrin conformational unbending and ligand-binding affinity revealed conditions under which the affinity change was transient whereas the unbending was sustained. In a VLA-4/VCAM-1-specific myeloid cell adhesion model system, changes in the affinity of the VLA-4-binding pocket were reflected in rapid cell aggregation and disaggregation. However, the initial rate of cell aggregation increased 9-fold upon activation, of which only 2.5-fold was attributable to the increased affinity of the binding pocket. These data show that independent regulation of affinity and conformational unbending represents a novel and fundamental mechanism for regulation of integrin-dependent adhesion in which the increased affinity appears to account primarily for the increasing lifetime of the alpha(4)beta(1) integrin/VCAM-1 bond, whereas the unbending accounts for the increased capture efficiency. 相似文献

Transglutaminases (TGases) are enzymes which catalyze cross-link formation between glutamine residues and lysine residues in substrate proteins. We have previously reported that one of the TGases, blood coagulation factor XIIIa (FXIIIa), is capable of mediating adhesion of various cells. In this paper, we report for the first time that tissue-type transglutaminase (TGc) also has cell adhesion activity. TGc-coated plastic surface promoted adhesion and spreading of cells in a TGc concentration-dependent manner. However, there are some obvious differences between cell adhesion mediated by TGc and FXIIIa. As was reported previously, the adhesion to FXIIIa is dependent on its TGase activity. In contrast, the TGc-mediated cell adhesion is independent of its TGase activity: 1) The modification of the active center cysteine with iodoacetamide blocked the enzyme activity without any effect on cell adhesion; 2) the addition of Mg2+ did not induce the enzyme activity, but it was as effective as Ca2+ for cell adhesion; 3) the addition of NH4+ inhibited the enzyme activity but did not affect the cell adhesion significantly. The integrins involved in these cell adhesions are quite different. In the case of FXIIIa, alpha vbeta3 and alpha5beta1 integrins are involved and consequently the RGD peptide substantially inhibited the adhesion. On the other hand, the cell adhesion to TGc is mediated by alpha4beta1 integrin but not alpha5beta1; a CS-1 peptide, which represents the binding site of fibronectin to alpha4beta1 integrin, completely inhibited the cell adhesion to TGc. It is possible that TGc and FXIIIa may mediate cell adhesion under different physiological and pathological situations. 相似文献

Kinases that associate with integrins are likely to mediate the assembly/disassembly of cell:matrix junctions during cell migration. Here we show that ERK1 associates with alpha(v)beta(3) integrin following the addition of platelet-derived growth factor to serum-starved Swiss or NIH 3T3 fibroblasts in an interaction that is mediated by the central region of the beta(3) integrin cytodomain. alpha(v)beta(3).ERK1 association occurred prior to focal complex formation and was seen to initiate in small punctate complexes primarily in the peripheral regions of the plasma membrane. Expression of a dominant negative mutant of ERK1 (but not ERK2) significantly reduced the spreading of cells on vitronectin, whereas cell spreading on fibronectin was unaffected by inhibition of ERK1. In contrast, inhibition of ERK activation by PD98059 had no effect on the platelet-derived growth factor-regulated Rab4-dependent flux of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin from early endosomes to the plasma membrane, an event that is also necessary for cells to spread efficiently on vitronectin. We propose that alpha(v)beta(3) integrin must recycle to the plasma membrane via the Rab4 pathway and recruit active ERK1 in order to function efficiently. 相似文献

Laminins are a family of extracellular matrix glycoproteins involved in cell adhesion and migration. A major obstacle to understanding their structure-function relationships is the lack of small laminin domains capable of replicating integrin-binding, cell-adhesive, and migratory functions of the intact molecule. Here, we show that the recombinant LG3 (rLG3) module (26 kDa) of laminin-5 (Ln-5) alpha(3) chain replicated key Ln-5 activities. rLG3 but not rLG1 or rLG2 supported cell adhesion and migration of at least two distinct cell lines, in an integrin alpha(3)beta(1)-dependent manner. Cell adhesion to rLG3 was regulated by divalent cations and accompanied by cell spreading and tyrosine phosphorylation of FAK focal adhesion kinase. The integrin binding activity of rLG3 was confirmed by rLG3 affinity chromatography of detergent cell lysates, which resulted in specific purification of integrin alpha(3)beta(1). To our knowledge, this is the first report directly demonstrating that a recombinant laminin LG module is an active domain capable of supporting integrin-dependent cell adhesion and migration. 相似文献

Exogenous soluble human alpha3 noncollagenous (NC1) domain of collagen IV inhibits angiogenesis and tumor growth. These biological functions are attributed to the binding of alpha3NC1 to integrin alphavbeta3. However, in some tumor cells that express integrin alphavbeta3, the alpha3NC1 domain does not inhibit proliferation, suggesting that integrin alphavbeta3 expression is not sufficient to mediate the anti-tumorigenic activity of this domain. Therefore, in the present study, we searched for novel binding receptors for the soluble alpha3NC1 domain in cells lacking alphavbeta3 integrin. In these cells, soluble alpha3NC1 bound integrin alpha3beta1; however, unlike alphavbeta3, alpha3beta1 integrin did not mediate cell adhesion to immobilized alpha3NC1 domain. Interestingly, in cells lacking integrin alpha3beta1, adhesion to the alpha3NC1 domain was enhanced due to activation of integrin alphavbeta3. These findings indicate that integrin alpha3beta1 is a receptor for the alpha3NC1 domain and transdominantly inhibits integrin alphavbeta3 activation. Thus integrin alpha3beta1, in conjunction with integrin alphavbeta3, modulates cellular responses to the alpha3NC1 domain, which may be pivotal in the mechanism underpinning its anti-angiogenic and anti-tumorigenic activities. 相似文献

Fibronectin (FN) deposition mediated by fibroblasts is an important process in matrix remodeling and wound healing. By monitoring the deposition of soluble biotinylated FN, we show that the stress-induced TG-FN matrix, a matrix complex of tissue transglutaminase (TG2) with its high affinity binding partner FN, can increase both exogenous and cellular FN deposition and also restore it when cell adhesion is interrupted via the presence of RGD-containing peptides. This mechanism does not require the transamidase activity of TG2 but is activated through an RGD-independent adhesion process requiring a heterocomplex of TG2 and FN and is mediated by a syndecan-4 and β1 integrin co-signaling pathway. By using α5 null cells, β1 integrin functional blocking antibody, and a α5β1 integrin targeting peptide A5-1, we demonstrate that the α5 and β1 integrins are essential for TG-FN to compensate RGD-induced loss of cell adhesion and FN deposition. The importance of syndecan-2 in this process was shown using targeting siRNAs, which abolished the compensation effect of TG-FN on the RGD-induced loss of cell adhesion, resulting in disruption of actin skeleton formation and FN deposition. Unlike syndecan-4, syndecan-2 does not interact directly with TG2 but acts as a downstream effector in regulating actin cytoskeleton organization through the ROCK pathway. We demonstrate that PKCα is likely to be the important link between syndecan-4 and syndecan-2 signaling and that TG2 is the functional component of the TG-FN heterocomplex in mediating cell adhesion via its direct interaction with heparan sulfate chains. 相似文献

The laminin alpha1 chain is a subunit of laminin-1, a heterotrimeric basement membrane protein. The LG4-5 module at the C terminus of laminin alpha1 contains major binding sites for heparin, sulfatide, and alpha-dystroglycan and plays a critical role in early embryonic development. We previously identified active synthetic peptides AG73 and EF-1 from the sequence of laminin alpha1 LG4 for binding to syndecan and integrin alpha2beta1, respectively. However, their activity and functional relationship within the laminin-1 and LG4 as well as the functional relation between these sites and alpha-dystroglycan binding sites in LG4 are not clear. To address these questions, we created mutant recombinant LG4 proteins containing alanine substitutions within the AG73 (M1), EF-1 (M2, M3), and alpha-dystroglycan binding sites (M4, M5) and analyzed their activities. We found that recombinant proteins rec-M1 and rec-M5, containing mutations within M1 and M5, respectively, did not bind heparin or lymphoid cell lines expressing syndecans. These results suggest that LG4 binds to heparin and syndecans through M1 and M5. Rec-M1 and rec-M5 reduced fibroblast attachment, whereas mutant rec-M2 and rec-M3 retained cell attachment activity but did not promote cell spreading. Fibroblast attachment to rec-LG4 was inhibited by heparin but not by integrin antibodies. Spreading of fibroblasts on rec-LG4 was inhibited by anti-integrin alpha2 and beta1 but not by anti-integrin alpha1 and alpha6. These results suggest that the M1 and M5 sites are necessary for cell attachment on LG4 through syndecans and that the EF-1 site is for cell spreading activity through integrin alpha2beta1. In contrast, laminin-1-mediated fibroblast attachment and spreading were not inhibited by heparin or anti-integrin alpha2. Our findings indicate that LG4 has a unique function distinct from laminin-1 and suggest that laminin alpha1 LG4-5 may also be produced by a proteolytic cleavage in certain tissues where it exerts its activity. 相似文献

Epiligrin, a new cell adhesion ligand for integrin alpha 3 beta 1 in epithelial basement membranes 总被引:52,自引:0,他引:52
Epiligrin is a new glycoprotein in most epithelial basement membranes (BMs) and is a ligand for cell adhesion via integrin alpha 3 beta 1. In the extracellular matrix of human foreskin keratinocytes (HFKs), epiligrin contains three disulfide-bonded, glycoprotein subunits, E170, E145, and E135, based on molecular size in kilodaltons. Epiligrin, immunopurified with MAb P1E1, induced cell adhesion and localization of integrin alpha 3 beta 1 in focal adhesions (FAs). Cell adhesion to epiligrin was inhibited with an anti-alpha 3 beta 1 MAb. Epiligrin also colocalized with integrin alpha 6 beta 4 in hemidesmosome-like stable anchoring contacts (SACs). alpha 3 beta 1-FAs encircled alpha 6 beta 4-SACs in a complex adhesion structure. alpha 3 beta 1 and epiligrin localized in BM junctions of epithelial cells primarily in organs of endodermal/ectodermal origin. In epidermis, epiligrin was detected in the lamina lucida of BMs. alpha 3 beta 1 localized in plasma membranes of basal cells in contact with epiligrin and also in lateral/apical membranes. Epiligrin is the ligand of an adhesion super complex composed of alpha 3 beta 1-FAs and alpha 6 beta 4-SACs (hemidesmosomes). 相似文献

The integrin alpha3beta1 mediates cellular adhesion to the matrix ligand laminin-5. A second integrin ligand, the urokinase receptor (uPAR), associates with alpha3beta1 via a surface loop within the alpha3 beta-propeller (residues 242-246) but outside the laminin binding region, suggesting that uPAR-integrin interactions could signal differently from matrix engagement. To explore this, alpha3-/- epithelial cells were reconstituted with wild-type (wt) alpha3 or alpha3 with Ala mutations within the uPAR-interacting loop (H245A or R244A). Wt or mutant-bearing cells showed comparable expression and adhesion to laminin-5. Cells expressing wt alpha3 and uPAR dissociated in culture, with increased Src activity, up-regulation of SLUG, and down-regulation of E-cadherin and gamma-catenin. Src kinase inhibition or expression of Src 1-251 restored the epithelial phenotype. The H245A and R244A mutants were unaffected by coexpression of uPAR. We conclude that alpha3beta1 regulates both cell-cell contact and matrix adhesion, but through distinct protein interaction sites within its beta-propeller. These studies reveal an integrin- and Src-dependent pathway for SLUG expression and mesenchymal transition. 相似文献

Recent studies indicate that angiogenesis depends, in part, on ligation of integrin alpha(5)beta(1) by fibronectin. Evidence is now provided that integrin alpha(5)beta(1) regulates the function of integrin alpha(v)beta(3) on endothelial cells during their migration in vitro or angiogenesis in vivo. Secretion of fibronectin by endothelial cells leads to the ligation of integrin alpha(5)beta(1), which potentiates alpha(v)beta(3)-mediated migration on vitronectin without influencing alpha(v)beta(3)-mediated cell adhesion. Endothelial cell attachment to vitronectin suppresses protein kinase A (PKA) activity, while addition of soluble anti-alpha(5)beta(1) restores this activity. Moreover, agents that activate intracellular PKA, such as forskolin, dibutyryl cAMP or alpha(5)beta(1) antagonists, suppress endothelial cell migration on vitronectin in vitro or angiogenesis in vivo. In contrast, inhibitors of PKA reverse the anti-migratory or anti-angiogenic effects mediated by alpha(5)beta(1) antagonists. Therefore, alpha(v)beta(3)-mediated endothelial cell migration and angiogenesis can be regulated by PKA activity, which depends on the ligation state of integrin alpha(5)beta(1). 相似文献

During amphibian gastrulation, mesodermal cell movements depend on both cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Ectodermal cells from the blastocoel roof use alpha5beta1 integrins to assemble a fibronectin-rich extracellular matrix on which mesodermal cells migrate using the same alpha5beta1 integrin. In this report, we show that the tyrosine phosphatase xPTP-PESTr can prevent fibronectin fibril formation when overexpressed in ectodermal cells resulting in delayed gastrulation. In addition, isolated ectodermal cells overexpressing xPTP-PESTr are able to spread on fibronectin using the alpha5beta1 integrin in the absence of activin-A induction and before the onset of gastrulation. We further show that while the inhibition of fibrillogenesis depends on the phosphatase activity of xPTP-PESTr, induction of cell spreading does not. Finally, while cell spreading is usually associated with cell migration, xPTP-PESTr promotes ectodermal cell spreading on fibronectin but also reduces cell migration in response to activin-A, suggesting an adverse effect on cell translocation. We propose that xPTP-PESTr overexpression adversely affect cell migration by preventing de-adhesion of cells from the substrate. 相似文献

We have recently reported the attachment and spreading of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) upon substrates containing covalently grafted Arg-Glu-Asp-Val (REDV) peptide (Hubbell, J. A., Massia, S. P., Desai, N. P., and Drumheller, P. D. (1991) Bio/Technology 9, 568-572). This peptide has been reported to be the minimal active sequence within the CS5 site of the alternatively spliced type III connecting segment (IIICS) region of fibronectin, and the integrin alpha 4 beta 1 has been identified as the receptor on melanoma cells for this site. The integrin alpha 4 beta 1 has also been identified as the receptor for the CS1 site in the IIICS region on cells of neural crest origin, melanoma cells, lymphocytes, and hematopoietic stem cells. In this study, we demonstrate that this integrin also serves as a receptor on HUVECs for the peptide REDV from the CS5 site. The alpha 4 subunit was shown to be expressed upon HUVEC membranes by whole-cell enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Antifunctional antibodies directed against integrin subunits alpha 4 and beta 1 inhibited cell adhesion on REDV-grafted substrates, but not on RGD-grafted substrates. The alpha 4 subunit localized into fibrillar structures within spread cells on the REDV-grafted substrates, but not within spread cells on RGD-grafted substrates. Two proteins (144 and 120 kDa) were isolated from HUVEC extracts by REDV ligand affinity chromatography and were demonstrated by immunoprecipitation and Western blot to be the integrin subunits alpha 4 (144 kDa) and beta 1 (120 kDa); furthermore, the immunoprecipitation analyses demonstrated that the subunits formed a complex. HUVEC binding to REDV-grafted substrates was inhibited by both soluble REDV and RGD, demonstrating that adhesion was biospecific and that the REDV peptide is RGD-like. In this report we demonstrate for the first time that alpha 4 is present in the endothelial cell membrane, in contrast to previous reports by others, and that integrin alpha 4 beta 1 is the receptor for REDV-mediated adhesion to the IIICS region of region of plasma fibronectin. 相似文献

Heterotropic association of tissue transglutaminase (TG2) with extracellular matrix-associated fibronectin (FN) can restore the adhesion of fibroblasts when the integrin-mediated direct binding to FN is impaired using RGD-containing peptide. We demonstrate that the compensatory effect of the TG-FN complex in the presence of RGD-containing peptides is mediated by TG2 binding to the heparan sulfate chains of the syndecan-4 cell surface receptor. This binding mediates activation of protein kinase Calpha (PKCalpha) and its subsequent interaction with beta(1) integrin since disruption of PKCalpha binding to beta(1) integrins with a cell-permeant competitive peptide inhibits cell adhesion and the associated actin stress fiber formation. Cell signaling by this process leads to the activation of focal adhesion kinase and ERK1/2 mitogen-activated protein kinases. Fibroblasts deficient in Raf-1 do not respond fully to the TG-FN complex unless either the full-length kinase competent Raf-1 or the kinase-inactive domain of Raf-1 is reintroduced, indicating the involvement of the Raf-1 protein in the signaling mechanism. We propose a model for a novel RGD-independent cell adhesion process that could be important during tissue injury and/or remodeling whereby TG-FN binding to syndecan-4 activates PKCalpha leading to its association with beta(1) integrin, reinforcement of actin-stress fiber organization, and MAPK pathway activation. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to determine the roles of individual alpha/beta 1 integrin heterodimers in promoting cellular interactions with the different attachment-promoting domains of laminin (LN). To do this, antibodies to the integrin beta 1 subunit or to specific integrin alpha subunits were tested for effects on cell attachment to LN, to elastase fragments E1-4 and E1, derived from the short arms and core of LN's cruciform structure, and to fragment E8 derived from the long arm of this structure. The human JAR choriocarcinoma cells used in this study attached to LN and to fragments E1 and E8. Attachment to E1-4 required a much higher substrate coating concentration, suggesting that it is a poor substrate for JAR cell attachment. The ability of cells to attach to different LN domains suggested the presence of more than one LN receptor. These multiple LN receptors were shown to be beta 1 integrin heterodimers because antibodies to the integrin beta 1 subunit inhibited attachment of JAR cells to LN and its three fragments. To identify the individual integrin alpha/beta 1 heterodimers that mediate interactions with these LN domains, mAbs specific for individual beta 1 heterodimers in human cells were used to study JAR cell interactions with LN and its fragments. An anti-alpha 6/beta 1-specific mAb, GoH3, virtually eliminated cell attachment to E8 and partially inhibited attachment to E1 and intact LN. Thus the major alpha 6/beta 1 attachment domain is present in fragment E8. An alpha 1/beta 1-specific mAb (S2G3) strongly inhibited cell attachment to collagen IV and partially inhibited JAR attachment to LN fragment E1. Thus, the alpha 1/beta 1 heterodimer is a dual receptor for collagen IV and LN, interacting with LN at a site in fragment E1. In combination, the anti-alpha 1- and anti-alpha 6-specific antibodies completely inhibited JAR cell attachment to LN and fragment E1. Thus, the alpha 1/beta 1 and alpha 6/beta 1 integrin heterodimers each function as LN receptors and act together to mediate the interactions of human JAR choriocarcinoma cells with LN. 相似文献

CD47-binding sequences from the carboxyl-terminal domain of thrombospondin-1 (TSP1) are known to regulate activity of the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin (Gao, G., Lindberg, F. P., Dimitry, J. M., Brown, E. J., and Frazier, W. A. (1996) J. Cell Biol. 135, 533-544). Here we show that peptides from the type 1 repeats of TSP1 also stimulate alpha(v)beta(3) integrin function in melanoma cells. Addition of soluble peptide 246 (KRFKQDGGWSHWSPWSS) enhances spreading of A2058 melanoma cells on several alpha(v)beta(3) integrin ligands, including vitronectin, recombinant TSP1 fragments containing the Arg-Gly-Asp sequence, and native TSP1. This activity requires the Trp residues and is independent of CD36-binding sequences in the type 1 repeats. Recombinant type 1 repeats expressed as a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein also enhance spreading on vitronectin and TSP1. Activation of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin by the soluble peptide 246 stimulates organization of F-actin and increases tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase. In contrast, direct adhesion of melanoma cells on immobilized peptide 246 inhibits tyrosine phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase. Stimulation of alpha(v)beta(3) integrin function by the type 1 repeat peptide differs from that induced by CD47-binding TSP1 peptides in that heparan sulfate proteoglycans are required and pertussis toxin does not inhibit the former activity. Thus, the type 1 repeats contain a second sequence of TSP1 that can enhance alpha(v)beta(3) integrin signaling, and these two sequences stimulate recognition of both vitronectin and TSP1 by the alpha(v)beta(3) integrin. 相似文献

Alkaline treatment is a good method for extracting collagen with high recovery even from an aged animal specimen. However, the properties of collagen treated under alkaline conditions have not been well established yet. By the treatment with a solution of 3% sodium hydroxide and 1.9% monomethylamine, the isoelectric point of type I collagen was lowered from 9.3 to 4.8 because of the conversions of Asn and Gln to Asp and Glu. With the acidification of the pI, the denaturation temperature of the collagen was decreased from 42 to 35 degrees C after 20 d treatment, but the collagen-specific triple helical conformation was maintained. Human keratinocytes and fibroblasts adhered to the alkali-treated collagen via the collagen receptor integrin alpha2beta1. This indicates that the alkali-treated collagen maintained its property as a biological adherent molecule. Unlike acid-soluble collagen, alkali-treated collagen lost the ability to form fibrils at neutral pH under physiological conditions. This ability was lost even after 4 h of alkaline treatment, when the denaturation temperature of the collagen did not change. On the other hand, the alkali-treated collagen formed a fibrous precipitate with a uniform diameter of 50-70 nm under acidic conditions at 30 degrees C. 相似文献

Cell shape and adhesion of cultured mammalian cells change dramatically during mitosis, however, how cell cycle-dependent alterations in cell adhesion are regulated remain to be elucidated. We show here that normal human mammary epithelial (HME) cells which became less adhesive and adopted the rounded morphology during the G(2)/M phase of the cell cycle significantly reduced their dependence on beta1 integrin-mediated adhesion to laminin, by using function blocking antibody to beta1 integrin. In G(2)/M cells, both total and cell surface expressions of beta1 integrin were comparable with those in G(1) cells but it was phosphorylated at threonines 788-789 within its cytoplasmic domain and coimmunoprecipitated Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase (CaMK) II. The threonine phosphorylated beta1 integrin significantly reduced its intracellular linkage with actin, with no significant reduction in the actin expression. In contrast, beta1 integrin in G(1) cells was not threonine phosphorylated but formed a link with actin and coimmunoprecipitated the core enzyme of the serine/threonine protein phosphatase (PP) 2A. The results suggest that reduced beta1 integrin-mediated cell adhesion of HME cells to the substratum during mitosis may be induced by beta1 integrin phosphorylation at threonines 788-789 and its reduced ability to link with the actin cytoskeleton. 相似文献
