A new cytoskeletal connection for APC: linked to actin through IQGAP
Abstract
Migrating cells reorganize their actin and microtubule cytoskeletons in response to external cues. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Watanabe et al. now show a molecular connection between the actin crosslinking protein IQGAP1 and the microtubule-stabilizing protein APC that impacts cells' ability to migrate into a wound.

Interaction with IQGAP1 links APC to Rac1, Cdc42, and actin filaments during cell polarization and migration.Dev Cell. 2004 Dec;7(6):871-83. doi: 10.1016/j.devcel.2004.10.017. Dev Cell. 2004. PMID: 15572129
