Analysis of the role of the leucine zipper motif in regulating the ability of AFAP‐110 to alter actin filament integrity

Abstract: AFAP-110 has an intrinsic ability to alter actin filament integrity as an actin filament crosslinking protein. This capability is regulated by a carboxy terminal leucine zipper (Lzip) motif. The Lzip motif facilitates self-association stabilizing the AFAP-110 multimers. Deletion of the Lzip motif (AFAP-110(Deltalzip)) reduces the stability of the AFAP-110 multimer and concomitantly increases its ability to crosslink actin filaments, in vitro, and to activate cSrc and alter actin filament integrity, in vivo.

“…AFAP-110 contains several protein-binding motifs at its amino terminus and functions as an adapter protein for actin filaments (Qian et al, 2000;Baisden et al, 2001b;Qian et al, 2004). It is also required to control protein kinase Ca-mediated activation of c-Src and the subsequent formation of podosomes .…”

“…The carboxy terminal actin filament-binding domain and the Lzip of AFAP1 enable it to crosslink actin filaments (37). Following activation by the serine/threonine kinase PKCα, AFAP1 is directed to perinuclear region of the cell with cSrc and activates cSrc by binding to the SH3 domain via its N-terminal SH3-binding motif, thus leading to the cSrc downstream activation that affects cell adhesion, invasion and motility (25).…”

“…Actin filament-associated protein 1 (AFAP1; also known and hereafter referred to as actin-filament-associated protein of 110 kDa, AFAP-110) belongs to the functional group of actin-binding proteins that regulate actin-filament crosslinking through its ability to undergo dynamic changes in multimerization (Qian et al, 2004). AFAP-110 is composed of a functional actin-binding domain (Qian et al, 2000) and several protein-binding motifs, including two SH2 and one SH3 (Guappone and Flynn, 1997) binding motifs, two pleckstrin homology (PH) domains and a leucine-zipper (LZ) motif (Qian et al, 1998;Qian et al, 2004).…”

In quiescent cells AFAP-110 colocalizes to actin stress filaments (Flynn et al, 1993).…”
