Formins specify membrane patterns generated by propagating actin waves

摘要
En 中文
Circular actin waves separate two distinct areas on the substrate-attached cell surface from each other: an external area from an inner territory that is circumscribed by the wave. These areas differ in composition of actin-associated proteins and of phosphoinositides in the membrane. At the propagating wave, one area is converted into the other. By photo-conversion of Eos-actin and analysis of actin network structures we show that both in the inner territory and the external area the actin network is subject to continuous turnover. To address the question of whether areas in the wave pattern are specified by particular actin polymerizing machines, we locate five members of the formin family to specific regions of the wave landscape using TIRF microscopy and constitutively active formin constructs tagged with fluorescent protein. Formin ForB favors the actin wave and ForG the inner territory, whereas ForA, ForE, and ForH are more strongly recruited to the external area. Fluctuations of membrane binding peculiar to ForB indicate transient states in the specification of membrane domains before differentiation into ForB decorated and depleted ones. Annihilation of the patterns by 1 mu M of the formin inhibitor SMIFH2 supports the implication of formins in their generation.
