Signal transduction and the actin cytoskeleton: the roles of MARCKS and profilin
Abstract
MARCKS and profilin, two actin-binding proteins, are discussed to illustrate the mechanism by which extracellular signals are coupled to changes in the structure of the actin cytoskeleton. MARCKS is a filamentous actin-crosslinking protein that appears to function as an integrator of protein kinase C and calcium (Ca2+)/calmodulin signals in the regulation of actin-membrane interactions. New data suggest that profilin is activated by the coordinated action of receptor tyrosine kinases and phospholipase C-gamma 1 to stimulate the stabilization of actin filaments.
