Intrinsic Tau Acetylation Is Coupled to Auto-Proteolytic Tau Fragmentation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
Tau proteins are abnormally aggregated in a range of neurodegenerative tauopathies including Alzheimer's disease (AD). Recently, tau has emerged as an extensively post-translationally modified protein, among which lysine acetylation is critical for ...

Regulation of microtubule disassembly by spatially heterogeneous patterns of acetylation [PDF]

open access: yesSoft Matter, 2019
This study investigates the effect of spatial patterns of acetylation on the disassembly dynamics of microtubule filaments using a multi-protofilament model.

EWSR1 regulates mitosis by dynamically influencing microtubule acetylation. [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2016
EWSR1, participating in transcription and splicing, has been identified as a translocation partner for various transcription factors, resulting in translocation, which in turn plays crucial roles in tumorigenesis. Recent studies have investigated the role of EWSR1 in mitosis. However, the effect of EWSR1 on mitosis is poorly understood.

Reduced microtubule acetylation in cystic fibrosis epithelial cells [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology, 2013
Dysfunctional cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) leads to many cellular consequences, including perinuclear accumulation of free cholesterol due to impaired endosomal transport. The hypothesis being tested is that CF-related perinuclear cholesterol accumulation due to disrupted endocytic trafficking occurs as a result of reduced

KazrinE is a desmosome-associated liprin that colocalises with acetylated microtubules [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2009
Kazrin is a widely expressed, evolutionarily conserved cytoplasmic protein that binds the cytolinker protein periplakin. Multiple functions of kazrin have been reported, including regulation of desmosome assembly, embryonic tissue morphogenesis and epidermal differentiation.

Alpha-Tubulin Acetylation in Trypanosoma cruzi: A Dynamic Instability of Microtubules Is Required for Replication and Cell Cycle Progression

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021
Trypanosomatids have a cytoskeleton arrangement that is simpler than what is found in most eukaryotic cells. However, it is precisely organized and constituted by stable microtubules.

A BBSome Subunit Links Ciliogenesis, Microtubule Stability, and Acetylation [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2008
Primary cilium dysfunction affects the development and homeostasis of many organs in Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS). We recently showed that seven highly conserved BBS proteins form a stable complex, the BBSome, that functions in membrane trafficking to and inside the primary cilium. We have now discovered a BBSome subunit that we named BBIP10. Similar to

Potent Small-Molecule Inhibitors Targeting Acetylated Microtubules as Anticancer Agents Against Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
Microtubules are one of the major targets for anticancer drugs because of their role in cell proliferation and migration. However, as anticancer drugs targeting microtubules have side effects, including the death of normal cells, it is necessary to ...

Microtubule Acetylation Promotes Kinesin-1 Binding and Transport [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2006
Long-distance intracellular delivery is driven by kinesin and dynein motor proteins that ferry cargoes along microtubule tracks . Current models postulate that directional trafficking is governed by known biophysical properties of these motors-kinesins generally move to the plus ends of microtubules in the cell periphery, whereas cytoplasmic dynein ...
