Thymosin beta 4 is a 43-amino acid actin-binding protein that promotes cell migration and is important in angiogenesis, wound healing, and tumor metastasis. We searched for genes upregulated by thymosin beta 4 and identified zyxin as increased in SiHa cells in the presence of exogenously added thymosin beta 4 and when thymosin beta 4 is overexpressed using adenoviral vectors. Both zyxin and thymosin beta 4 show increased localization in the nucleus. We conclude that thymosin beta 4 may exert some of its migration promoting activity via increased zyxin expression.
