An actomyosin clamp assembled by the Amphiphysin-Rho1-Dia/DAAM-Rok pathway reinforces somatic cell membrane folded around spermatid heads

open access: yesCell Reports, 2021
Summary: Membrane curvature recruits Bin-Amphiphysin-Rvs (BAR)-domain proteins and induces local F-actin assembly, which further modifies the membrane curvature and dynamics. The downstream molecular pathway in vivo is still unclear. Here, we show that a

Phosphorylation of syndapin I F-BAR domain at two helix-capping motifs regulates membrane tubulation. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2012
Syndapin I (PACSIN 1) is a synaptically enriched membrane tubulating protein that plays important roles in activity-dependent bulk endocytosis and neuronal morphogenesis. While syndapin I is an in vitro phosphoprotein, it is not known to be phosphorylated in neurons.

Computer Simulation of Membrane Tubulation by EFC F-BAR Domain Lattices [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2012
Cells are dynamically sculpted into many types of compartments by cellular membranes, in some cases with the help of BAR domain proteins. BAR domain proteins act under in vitro conditions are found to induce formation of tubules. We have seen in coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulation stretching over 100 microseconds how a flat membrane is curved ...

Multiple polarity kinases inhibit phase separation of F-BAR protein Cdc15 and antagonize cytokinetic ring assembly in fission yeast

open access: yeseLife, 2023
The F-BAR protein Cdc15 is essential for cytokinesis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe and plays a key role in attaching the cytokinetic ring (CR) to the plasma membrane (PM).

The Tubulation Activity of a Fission Yeast F-BAR Protein Is Dispensable for Its Function in Cytokinesis

open access: yesCell Reports, 2016
F-BAR proteins link cellular membranes to the actin cytoskeleton in many biological processes. Here we investigated the function of the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Imp2 F-BAR domain in cytokinesis and find that it is critical for Imp2’s role in contractile

Computer Simulations of how EFC F-BAR Domain Lattices Sculpt Membranes [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2011
Biological cells are dynamically sculpted into compartments by cellular membranes. For example, in vitro experiments BAR domains induce tubule formation from lipid liposomes. Previous simulations showed how different lattice arrangements of N-BAR domains shape membrane into tubules (Yin, Arkhipov, and Schulten, 2009).

How Synaptotagmin I, N-BAR and F-BAR Domains Generate Membrane Curvature [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2015
Protein-induced membrane curving governs many cellular processes, including cell division, growth and cell-cell communication. In order to unravel the mechanism for how membrane curvature occurs driven by the proteins, one needs to have detailed molecular pictures on the key membrane-protein interactions and protein-protein interactions.

The F-BAR domain of SRGP-1 facilitates cell-cell adhesion during C. elegans morphogenesis. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cell Biol, 2010
Robust cell–cell adhesion is critical for tissue integrity and morphogenesis, yet little is known about the molecular mechanisms controlling cell–cell junction architecture and strength. We discovered that SRGP-1 is a novel component of cell–cell junctions in Caenorhabditis elegans, localizing via its F-BAR (Bin1, Amphiphysin, and RVS167) domain and a ...

Phagocytosis is mediated by two-dimensional assemblies of the F-BAR protein GAS7

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs167 (BAR) domain superfamily, which includes FCH-BAR (F-BAR) domain proteins are membrane-sculpting proteins. Here the authors combine a range of techniques and show that the F-BAR domain of growth-arrest specific protein 7 (GAS7 ...
