Research Abstract |
We have shown that vinexin, a focal adhesion protein, inhibits tumor cell migration but promotes cutaneous wound healing by controlling the localization of growth factor receptors. We have also shown that WAVE2, an actin-nucleating factor that binds to vinexin, recruits cAMP-dependent kinase to the membrane protrusion and promotes the protrusion. Furthermore, another vinexin-binding protein Dlg5 can regulate the secretion of fibronectin, a extracellular matrix. Together, these results indicate the function of focal adhesion proteins as sensors and regulators for cellular microenvironment.
