βPix-d promotes tubulin acetylation and neurite outgrowth through a PAK/Stathmin1 signaling pathway.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2020
Microtubules are a major cytoskeletal component of neurites, and the regulation of microtubule stability is essential for neurite morphogenesis. βPix (ARHGEF7) is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for the small GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42, which modulate ...

Cuproptosis and Mitophagy Mediated by the THUMPD1/IGF2R‐Dependent Suppression of AKT and Activation of AMPK Signaling Suppress Lung Adenocarcinoma Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
THUMPD1 drives a tumor‐suppressive signaling cascade in lung adenocarcinoma by promoting IGF2R expression. IGF2R associates with PPP2R1A to suppress AKT and activate AMPK, leading to SLC31A1 upregulation and copper accumulation. Elevated copper disrupts mitochondrial metabolism and induces excessive mitophagy, thereby restraining tumor growth and ...

Microtubule Acetylation in Anterior Pituitary Gonadotropes

open access: yes, 2016
The hypothalamic pituitary gonadal (HPG) axis plays an essential role in mammalian reproduction. In the hypothalamus gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) is released where it then travels to the anterior pituitary to bind to its receptor on gonadotrope ...

A phospho-regulated ensemble signal motif of α-TAT1 drives dynamic microtubule acetylation

open access: yes, 2021
Posté le 5 décembre 2020 sur BioRxivSpatiotemporal patterns of microtubule modifications such as acetylation underlie diverse cellular functions. While the molecular identity of the acetylating agent, α-tubulin N-acetyltransferase 1 (α-TAT1), as well as ...

Increased acetylation of microtubules rescues human tau-induced microtubule defects and neuromuscular junction abnormalities in Drosophila

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2017
Tau normally associates with and stabilizes microtubules (MTs), but is hyperphosphorylated and aggregated into neurofibrillary tangles in Alzheimer's disease and related neurodegenerative diseases, which are collectively known as tauopathies.

Cep169, a Novel Microtubule Plus-End-Tracking Centrosomal Protein, Binds to CDK5RAP2 and Regulates Microtubule Stability. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The centrosomal protein, CDK5RAP2, is a microcephaly protein that regulates centrosomal maturation by recruitment of a γ-tubulin ring complex (γ-TuRC) onto centrosomes. In this report, we identified a novel human centrosomal protein, Cep169, as a binding
