Abstract:
Dynamic instability is a critical property of microtubules (MTs). By regulating the rate of tubulin polymerization and depolymerization, cells organize the MT cytoskeleton to accommodate their specific functions. Among many processes, posttranslational modifications of tubulin are implicated in regulating MT functions. Here we report a novel tubulin acetylation catalyzed by acetyltransferase San at lysine 252 (K252) of β-tubulin. This acetylation, which is also detected in vivo, is added to soluble tubulin heterodimers but not tubulins in MTs. The acetylation-mimicking K252A/Q mutants were inc

Abstract:
Cytoskeleton remodelling is a prerequisite step for the morphological transition from preadipocytes to mature adipocytes. Although microtubules play a pivotal role in organizing cellular structure, regulation of microtubule dynamics during adipogenesis remains unclear. In the present paper we show that acetylation of α-tubulin is up-regulated during adipogenesis, and adipocyte development is dependent on α-tubulin acetylation, as expression of an acetylation-resistant α-tubulin mutant significantly inhibits adipogenesis. Moreover, acetylation of α-tubulin is under the control of the acetyltran

Microtubules (MTs), dynamic polymers of α/β-tubulin heterodimers found in all eukaryotes, are involved in cytoplasm spatial organization, intracellular transport, cell polarity, migration and division, and in cilia biology.

Compound 6b dose-dependently induces the acetylation level of α-tubulin via inhibition of HDAC6 in human neuroblastoma SH-SY5Y cell line. Moreover, compound 6b efficiently reverses methamphetamine-induced morpholo

Abstract:
Abstract Metastasis of breast cancer (BC) to bone results in severe bone loss, fractures, and death. The crosstalk between BC cells and bone resident cells dramatically increases osteoclast activity, resulting in the release of growth factors from the bone matrix that causes aggressive tumor growth and bone loss. A potentially important aspect of this process is vesicular trafficking on microtubules (MTs) which can affect the output of signaling pathways and secretory activity of metastatic bone cells. MTs are cytoskeletal filaments composed of heterodimers, α- and β-tubulin. The tubulin isoty

Abstract γδ T cells based immunotherapy has emerged as a new treatment strategy for malignant tumors. The underlying cytotoxic mechanism against cancer cells involves surface receptor recognition molecules such as LFA-1, NKG2D, TRAIL, CD16, CD107a, and FasL, as well as cytokines such TNFα, IFNγ, perforin, and granzyme B. Previously, it has been shown that the cytoskeleton plays pivotal roles in T cell immunity. Nevertheless, the role of cytoskeleton in γδ T cell anti-tumor immunity remains largely unknown.

Abstract:
Acetylation of K40 in α-tubulin is the sole posttranslational modification to mark the luminal surface of microtubules. It is still controversial whether its relationship with microtubule stabilization is correlative or causative. We have obtained high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) reconstructions of pure samples of αTAT1-acetylated and SIRT2-deacetylated microtubules to visualize the structural consequences of this modification and reveal its potential for influencing the larger assembly properties of microtubules.

Abstract:
The molecular mechanisms that guide each neuron to become polarized, forming a single axon and multiple dendrites, remain unknown. Here we show that CAMSAP3 (calmodulin-regulated spectrin-associated protein 3), a protein that regulates the minus-end dynamics of microtubules, plays a key role in maintaining neuronal polarity. In mouse hippocampal neurons, CAMSAP3 was enriched in axons. Although axonal microtubules were generally acetylated, CAMSAP3 was preferentially localized along a less-acetylated fraction of the microtubules. CAMSAP3-mutated neurons often exhibited supernumerary axons, alon

Efficient human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection depends on multiple interactions between the viral gp41/gp120 envelope (Env) proteins and cell surface receptors.

Because the effects of HDAC6-tubulin deacetylase on cortical α-tubulin regulate cell migration and immune synapse organization, we explored the possible role of HDAC6 in HIV-1-envelope-mediated cell fusion and infection.

Levels of hydrogen peroxide are highly elevated in the breast tumor microenvironment compared to normal tissue. Production of hydrogen peroxide is implicated in the mechanism of action of many anticancer therapies. Several lines of evidence suggest hydrogen peroxide mediates breast carcinogenesis and metastasis, though the molecular mechanism remains poorly understood. This study elucidates the effects of exposure to elevated hydrogen peroxide on non-tumorigenic MCF10A mammary epithelial cells, tumorigenic MCF7 cells, and metastatic MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells.

Tubulin can be acetylated/deacetylated on Lys40 of the α-subunit. Studies of the post-translational acetylation/deacetylation of tubulin using biochemical techniques require tubulin preparations that are enriched in AcTubulin (acetylated tubulin) and (for comparison) preparations lacking AcTubulin. Assembly–disassembly cycling of microtubules gives tubulin preparations that contain little or no AcTubulin. In the present study we demonstrated that this result is owing to the presence of high deacetylating activity in the extracts. This deacetylating activity in rat brain homogenates was inhibit

Following treatment with DNA-damaging agents, increased levels of Ac-α-tubulin were detected.
