Assembly of Acanthamoeba myosin-II minifilaments. Definition of C-terminal residues required to form coiled-coils, dimers, and octamers.

Journal of molecular biology - 14 Jan 2005

Turbedsky Kirsi, Pollard Thomas D

Abstract excerpt

Acanthamoeba myosin-II forms bipolar octamers by three successive steps of dimerization of the C-terminal, coiled-coil tail. In this study, we generated N-terminal and C-terminal truncation constructs and point mutants of the Acanthamoeba myosin-II tail to delineate the structural requirements for assembly of bipolar mini-filaments. By the use of light-scattering, CD spectroscopy, analytical ultracentrifugation,...
