Abstract excerpt
Paxillin is a focal adhesion adapter protein involved in integrin signaling. Paxillin LD motifs bind several focal adhesion proteins including the focal adhesion kinase, vinculin, the Arf-GTPase-activating protein paxillin-kinase linker, and the newly identified actin-binding protein actopaxin. Microsequencing of peptides derived from a 50-kDa paxillin LD1 motif-binding protein revealed 100% identity with...
