Cytoskeletal proteins and resident flora
Digestive and Liver Disease, 2002Recent observations demonstrate that enteropathogenetic and enterohaemorrhagic bacteria, as well as other non enteropathogenetic bacteria (Listeria, Coxiella Burnetii), may subvert the host cell cytoskeleton. Models from enteropathogenic bacteria demonstrate that cytoskeletal proteins are required for bacteria binding to the enterocytes and that they ...

Cytoskeletal protein abnormalities in neurodegenerative diseases [PDF]
Annals of Neurology, 1986 AbstractThe nervous system is a rich source of filamentous proteins that assume critical roles in determining and maintaining neuronal form and function. Neurons contain three major classes of these cytoskeletal organelles: microtubules, intermediate filaments, and microfilaments.

Cytoskeletal proteins and Golgi dynamics
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1998Association of the Golgi complex with cytoskeletal elements, in particular microtubules, is required for maintenance of the Golgi's characteristic spatial location within cells and for efficient delivery of proteins and lipids to diverse cellular sites.

Radixin: cytoskeletal adopter and signaling protein
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2004Radixin functions as a membrane-cytoskeletal crosslinkers in actin-rich cell surface structures and is thereby thought to be essential for cortical cytoskeleton organization, cell motility, adhesion and proliferation. This modular polypeptide consists of a long, central helix, termed the alpha-domain, which connects an N-terminal 4.1/ezrin/radixin ...

FH proteins as cytoskeletal organizers
Trends in Cell Biology, 1998Regulation of cell shape is a poorly understood yet central issue in cell biology. Recent experiments indicate that FH proteins link cellular signalling pathways to changes in cell shape. Members of the FH protein family play essential roles in cytokinesis and in driving alterations in cell polarity.

The role of cytoskeletal proteins in cardiomyopathies
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1998Cardiomyopathies are serious heart muscle disorders in children and adults, which result in morbidity and premature death. These disorders include hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, dilated cardiomyopathy and restrictive cardiomyopathy. Recently, mutations in seven genes, all encoding sarcomeric proteins, have been identified as causes of familial ...

Cytoskeletal Proteins in Human Hair Cells
Acta Oto-Laryngologica, 1995Human cochlear and vestibular hair cells (HCs) were analysed for the three major cytoskeletal types of structures: microfilaments, microtubules, and intermediate filaments and several of their associated proteins. Specific immunomorphological features were identified: the apical surface, the infracuticular rod of F-actin, the cytoplasm and the HC bases

Purification of Tetrahymena Cytoskeletal Proteins
2012Like all eukaryotic cells, Tetrahymena thermophila contains a rich array of cytoskeletal proteins, some familiar and some novel. A detailed analysis of the structure, function, and interactions of these proteins requires procedures for purifying the individual protein components. Procedures for the purification of actin and tubulin from Tetrahymena are

Role of the Cytoskeletal Protein Paxillin in Oncogenesis
Critical Reviews™ in Oncogenesis, 2000The focal adhesion is an important cellular structure that is involved in cell signaling, cell motility, and oncogenic transformation. Paxillin is a unique adapter protein that is localized to the focal adhesion and is involved in regulating various functions of the focal adhesion.

Interaction of Cytoskeletal Proteins with Membrane Lipids
1997Rapid and significant progress has been made in understanding lipid/protein interactions involving cytoskeletal components and the plasma membrane. Covalent and noncovalent lipid modifications of cytoskeletal proteins mediate their interaction with lipid bilayers.
