Many cells such as platelets and fibroblasts change their shape and move in response to extracellular agonists. This is considered to be a crucial step, because it often occurs when cells become committed to the accomplishment of a function, growth, or even transformation. Much has been learned about the membrane events involved in cell signaling (Cantley et al., 1991). Concurrently, major discoveries have been made concerning the structure of the cytoskeleton that controls cell shape and motility (Stossel, 1989; Pollard, 1990). The connection between membrane activity and cytoskeletal structure has remained a mystery. However, specific interactions between proteins of the actin-based skeleton and key molecules of membrane signaling pathways have been identified in vitro and now in vivo: the actin-binding protein profilin may contribute to a signaling pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is regulated by RAS, the ubiquitous GTPase that plays a central role in differentiation, growth, and proliferation of diverse cells (Hall, 1990) and by the adenyl cyclase-associated protein known as CAP (Vojtek et al., 1991). In S. cerevisiae, the only cell in which an effector of RAS has been characterized, RAS activates adenylate cyclase. This effect specifically requires the N-terminal domain of CAP (Gerst et al., 1991; Figure 1). The phenotype of yeast cells that are null for CAP or its C-terminal domain resembles that of yeast cells depleted of profilin by gene disruption. They grow slowly, become very large and round, and have budding and nutritional defects. In yeast cells null for
