Relationship between organization of the actin cytoskeleton and the cell cycle in normal and adenovirus-infected rat cells.
Authors:P Jackson and  A J Bellett
Abstract:Flow cytometry and staining with 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole-phallacidin were used to investigate organization of the actin cytoskeleton in rat embryo cells at different stages of normal and adenovirus E1A-induced cell cycles. In uninfected cells in G0-G1 and S phases, actin was predominantly in the form of stress fibers. In G2, this organization changed to peripheral rings of thin filaments, while during mitosis, actin had a diffuse distribution. Infection of quiescent rat cells by adenovirus caused them to enter the cell cycle and replicate DNA and also caused disruption of stress fibers. Rapid disappearance of stress fibers and the appearance of peripheral rings of actin filaments began from 13 h after infection and closely followed synthesis of the E1A proteins. Infected cells began S phase at about 24 h after infection, and cells in G2 and mitosis were seen from 30 to 50 h. Thus, disruption of the actin cytoskeleton is an early effect of E1A and not an indirect consequence of the entry of infected cells into the cell cycle.
