Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we show the key role of thiol-disulfide oxidoreductase, PDI, in actin cytoskeleton structure. When exposed to oxidative stress, Oryza sativa cells accumulated intermolecularly disulfide-bonded high-molecular-weight structures of actin. During recovery from oxidative stress, PDI cleaved disulfide bonds in high-molecular-weight structures of actin. Based on these results, we propose a PDI-dependent reductive pathway that promotes degradation of nonnative-disulfide-bonded structures of actin and reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton.
