CFL1 — RAC2
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Thirone et al., Am J Physiol Cell Physiol 2009
:
Since the small GTPases Rho and
Rac are sensitive to cell volume changes and can
regulate cofilin phosphorylation, we also asked whether they might link osmostress to cofilin ... Hyperosmolarity provoked cofilin phosphorylation was mediated by the Rho/Rho kinase ( ROCK ) /LIM kinase ( LIMK ) but not the Rac/PAK/LIMK pathway, because 1 ) dominant negative ( DN ) Rho and DN-ROCK but not
DN-Rac and DN-PAK
inhibited cofilin phosphorylation ; 2 ) constitutively active ( CA ) Rho and CA-ROCK but not CA-Rac and CA-PAK induced cofilin phosphorylation ; 3 ) hyperosmolarity induced LIMK-2 phosphorylation, and 4 ) inhibition of ROCK by Y-27632 suppressed the hypertonicity triggered LIMK-2 and cofilin phosphorylation.We thenexamined whether cofilin and its phosphorylation play a role in the hypertonicity triggered F-actin changes
Huang et al., Biochem Biophys Res Commun 2012
(Vitreoretinopathy, Proliferative) :
Vitreous treatment also enhanced the phosphorylation of LIMK1 and
cofilin and the
Rac inhibitor
blocked this effect
Arber et al., Nature 1998
:
Constitutively active
Rac augmented
cofilin phosphorylation and LIM-kinase 1 autophosphorylation whereas phorbol ester inhibited these processes
