Open AccessTargeting the actin nucleation promoting factor WASp provides a therapeutic approach for hematopoietic malignancies
Cancer cells depend on actin cytoskeleton rearrangement to carry out hallmark malignant functions including activation, proliferation, migration and invasiveness. Wiskott–Aldrich Syndrome protein (WASp) is an ...

Open AccessA conformational change within the WAVE2 complex regulates its degradation following cellular activation
WASp family Verprolin-homologous protein-2 (WAVE2), a member of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASp) family of actin nucleation promoting factors, is a central regulator of actin cytoskeleton polymeriza...

Oligomerization of signaling complexes by the multipoint binding of GRB2 to both LAT and SOS1
Receptor oligomerization is vital for activating intracellular signaling, in part by initiating events that recruit effector and adaptor proteins to sites of active signaling. Whether these distal molecules th...

Dynamic molecular interactions linking the T cell antigen receptor to the actin cytoskeleton
T cell receptor (TCR) engagement leads to actin polymerization at the site of T cell contact with antigen-presenting cells. Here we have studied the dynamic activity of proteins involved in regulating actin po...

The mesenchyme expresses T cell receptor mRNAs: relevance to cell growth control
The mesenchyme plays a crucial regulatory role in organ formation and maintenance. However, comprehensive molecular characterization of these cells is lacking. We found unexpectedly that primary mesenchyme, as...
