Polarized Actin Rich Protrusions Depend On Wrc Function A Follicle

Polarized Actin Rich Protrusions Depend On Wrc Function A Follicle Both types of actin rich protrusion, the filopodial and the junctional whip like protrusions, depend on wrc function, because they are completely missing in sra 1 deficient. Although collective cell migrations are common in animal development, little is known about how protrusions are coherently polarized among groups of migrating epithelial cells. we address this problem in the collective migration of the follicular epithelial cells in drosophila melanogaster.

Polarized Actin Rich Protrusions Depend On Wrc Function A Follicle To test the hypothesis that fat2 is involved in recruiting the wrc, the researchers examined fat2 mutant cells, which displayed impaired wrc localization to the basal follicle side and to tricellular junctions as well as reduced actin rich protrusions at the basal side. Specifically, we will focus on two key protein complexes—the arp2 3 complex and the wave regulatory complex (wrc)—and the interaction between them. these complexes lie at the heart of branched network assembly in lamellipodia—sheet like protrusions at the leading edge of motile cells. The wrc promotes actin nucleation activity of actin relating proteins 2 3 (arp2 3) (bieling and rottner, 2023), thereby resulting in formation of protrusions on the leading edge of follicle cells (williams et al., 2022). Buracco et al. show that the wrc, without its vca domain, still promotes actin rich protrusions. however, wrc’s proline rich regions and n wasp are essential, with the latter compensating for the absence of scar wave’s vca domain.

Follicle Cells Form Two Different Types Of Polarized Actin Rich The wrc promotes actin nucleation activity of actin relating proteins 2 3 (arp2 3) (bieling and rottner, 2023), thereby resulting in formation of protrusions on the leading edge of follicle cells (williams et al., 2022). Buracco et al. show that the wrc, without its vca domain, still promotes actin rich protrusions. however, wrc’s proline rich regions and n wasp are essential, with the latter compensating for the absence of scar wave’s vca domain. To test the hypothesis that fat2 is involved in recruiting the wrc, the researchers examined fat2 mutant cells, which displayed impaired wrc localization to the basal follicle side and to tricellular junctions as well as reduced actin rich protrusions at the basal side. Here, we found that the atypical cadherin fat2 recruits the wrc to basal membranes of tricellular contacts where a new type of planar polarized whip like actin protrusion is formed. Both types of actin rich protrusion, the filopodial and the junctional whip like protrusions, depend on wrc function, because they are completely missing in sra 1 –deficient follicle cells (fig. 2 a and video 4).
