Intrinsic Structural Disorder in Cytoskeletal Proteins [PDF]

open access: yesCytoskeleton, 2013
Cytoskeleton, the internal scaffold of the cell, displays an exceptional combination of stability and dynamics. It is composed of three major filamentous networks, microfilaments (actin filaments), intermediate filaments (neurofilaments), and microtubules.

Targeting cytoskeletal phosphorylation in cancer [PDF]

open access: yesExploration of Targeted Anti-tumor Therapy, 2021
Phosphorylation of cytoskeletal proteins regulates the dynamics of polymerization, stability, and disassembly of the different types of cytoskeletal polymers. These control the ability of cells to migrate and divide.

Nucleocytoplasmic Shuttling of Cytoskeletal Proteins: Molecular Mechanism and Biological Significance [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cell Biology, 2012
Various nuclear functional complexes contain cytoskeletal proteins as regulatory subunits; for example, nuclear actin participates in transcriptional complexes, and actin-related proteins are integral to chromatin remodeling complexes.

Interactions between β-arrestin proteins and the cytoskeletal system, and their relevance to neurodegenerative disorders [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
β-arrestins, which have multiple cellular functions, were initially described as proteins that desensitize rhodopsin and other G protein-coupled receptors.

Transcriptomic Characteristics Associated With Aging in the Thyroid Gland

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
The aging thyroid is associated with a plethora of morphological and functional changes. Limited studies have addressed the gene expression signature in the aging thyroid, except for sporadic reports using data from postmortem samples in the Genotype ...

Shaping neurodevelopment: distinct contributions of cytoskeletal proteins. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Opin Neurobiol, 2018
Development of a neuron critically depends on the organization of its cytoskeleton. Cytoskeletal components, such as tubulins and actins, have the remarkable ability to organize themselves into filaments and networks to support specialized and ...

S‐nitrosylation of cytoskeletal proteins [PDF]

open access: yesCytoskeleton, 2019
AbstractNitric oxide has pronounced effects on cellular functions normally associated with the cytoskeleton, including cell motility, shape, contraction, and mitosis. Protein S‐nitrosylation, the covalent addition of a NO group to a cysteine sulfur, is a signaling pathway for nitric oxide that acts in parallel to cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP ...

FXR1 regulates vascular smooth muscle cell cytoskeleton, VSMC contractility, and blood pressure by multiple mechanisms

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Appropriate cytoskeletal organization is essential for vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) conditions such as hypertension. This study identifies FXR1 as a key protein linking cytoskeletal dynamics with mRNA stability.

Cytoskeletal Expression and Remodeling in Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Many emerging cell-based therapies are based on pluripotent stem cells, though complete understanding of the properties of these cells is lacking. In these cells, much is still unknown about the cytoskeletal network, which governs the mechanoresponse ...

Specific integrin alpha and beta chain phosphorylations regulate LFA-1 activation through affinity-dependent and -independent mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Integrins are adhesion receptors that are crucial to the functions of multicellular organisms. Integrin-mediated adhesion is a complex process that involves both affinity regulation and cytoskeletal coupling, but the molecular mechanisms behind this ...
