不同的肌动蛋白丝交联蛋白的紧密亚细胞接近表明,这些蛋白质可能合作组织F-肌动蛋白结构,以驱动复杂的细胞功能,在细胞粘附,运动和分裂。在这里,我们假设α-辅肌动蛋白和细丝蛋白,两个主要的F-肌动蛋白交联蛋白,都存在于贴壁细胞的板层,显示协同机械功能。使用定量流变学,我们发现α-辅肌动蛋白和细丝蛋白的组合比α-辅肌动蛋白和细丝蛋白单独产生弹性,固体状肌动蛋白细丝网络更有效。此外,在α-辅肌动蛋白和细丝蛋白存在下组装的F-肌动蛋白网络比在α-辅肌动蛋白或细丝蛋白存在下组装的网络更容易应变硬化。这些结果表明,细胞结合联合收割机辅助蛋白具有类似的能力,交联丝,以产生刚性的细胞骨架结构,这是所需的生产内部推进力的细胞迁移,这些蛋白质没有多余的机械功能。
The close subcellular proximity of different actin filament crosslinking proteins suggests that these proteins may cooperate to organize F-actin structures to drive complex cellular functions during cell adhesion, motility and division. Here we hypothesize that α-actinin and filamin, two major F-actin crosslinking proteins that are both present in the lamella of adherent cells, display synergistic mechanical functions. Using quantitative rheology, we find that combining α-actinin and filamin is much more effective at producing elastic, solid-like actin filament networks than α-actinin and filamin separately. Moreover, F-actin networks assembled in the presence of α-actinin and filamin strain-harden more readily than networks in the presence of either α-actinin or filamin. These results suggest that cells combine auxiliary proteins with similar ability to crosslink filaments to generate stiff cytoskeletal structures, which are required for the production of internal propulsive forces for cell migration, and that these proteins do not have redundant mechanical functions.
