  1. 1. Profilin : From the Cell Edge into the Nucleus

    Author : Sara Sadi; Roger Karlsson; Maria Vartiainen; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; profilin; actin; microfilament system; nucleus; SRF; MRTF; MAL; transcription; microtubules; Cell Biology; cellbiologi;

    Abstract : Internal and external signaling dependent changes in cell behavior are directly linked to force-generating remodeling of the actin microfilament system which is juxtaposed to the inside of the plasma membrane. This dynamic filament system is involved in many processes in the cytoplasm and the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. READ MORE

  2. 2. Actin and profilin:actin : studies on biochemistry, structure and function

    Author : Tomas Nyman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  3. 3. Profilin:actin in cell motility : A search for profilin:actin binding proteins

    Author : Thomas Johansson; Roger Karlsson; Björn Öbrink; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; profilin; actin; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The profilin:actin complex is a major source of actin for actin filament growth in vivo. A number of proteins regulating either profilin or actin has been described since profilin:actin was isolated during the 1970s. Since then, profilin and actin and their binding partners have been intensively studied. READ MORE

  4. 4. Cross-linked Profilin:actin - A tool to study actin dynamics in non-muscle cells

    Author : Staffan Grenklo; Roger Karlsson; Dan Lindholm; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; actin dynamics; profilin; actin; Profilin-actin complex; Cell motility; synaptic vesicle trafficing; Far western; fluorescence microscopy; Cell biology; Cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The microfilament system, consisting of actin and a number of auxiliary proteins, is fundamental for cell motility. Its dynamic organization depends on receptor-mediated signals, leading to rapid polymerizations and depolymerizations of actin. READ MORE

  5. 5. Profilins : The Control of the Microfilament and Microtubule systems

    Author : Michaela Nejedla; Roger Karlsson; Klemens Rottner; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Profilin; Actin; Microtubules; Cell Biology; cellbiologi;

    Abstract : The microtubule and actin filament systems are important for many cellular processes such as intracellular organelle trafficking, cell adhesion, migration and mitosis. The two filament systems are closely connected, operate in parallel and are essential for proper cell function. READ MORE
