Role of Spectrin in Endocytosis
Cells, 2022 Cytoskeletal spectrin is found in (non)erythroid cells. Eukaryotic endocytosis takes place for internalizing cargos from extracellular milieu. The role of spectrin in endocytosis still remains poorly understood.

BMC Microbiology, 2012 Background The spectrin cytoskeleton is emerging as an important host cell target of enteric bacterial pathogens. Recent studies have identified a crucial role for spectrin and its associated proteins during key pathogenic processes of Listeria ...

Calmodulin binding to human spectrin [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1984 Calmodulin is shown to interact with human spectrin dimer. The binding was highly calcium‐dependent and observed in two different kinds of experiments. Firstly, affinity chromatography of calmodulin on a Sepharose 4B column with immobilized spectrin, and secondly, partition in aqueous two‐phase polymer systems.

Calpain in Traumatic Brain Injury: From Cinderella to Central Player [PDF]
CellsTraumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a major global health concern and a leading cause of death and disability, especially in young adults. It triggers complex secondary injury cascades, e.g., calcium dysregulation, mitochondrial dysfunction and protease ...

Competition between myosin II and βH-spectrin regulates cytoskeletal tension
eLife, 2023 Spectrins are membrane cytoskeletal proteins generally thought to function as heterotetramers comprising two α-spectrins and two β-spectrins. They influence cell shape and Hippo signaling, but the mechanism by which they influence Hippo signaling has ...

Glycosylation of erythrocyte spectrin and its modification in visceral leishmaniasis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Using a lectin, Achatinin-H, having preferential specificity for glycoproteins with terminal 9-O-acetyl sialic acid derivatives linked in α2-6 linkages to subterminal N-acetylgalactosamine, eight distinct disease-associated 9-O-acetylated ...

Scientific Reports, 2021 The neuronal membrane-associated periodic spectrin skeleton (MPS) contributes to neuronal development, remodeling, and organization. Post-translational modifications impinge on spectrin, the major component of the MPS, but their role remains poorly ...
