Abstract excerpt
GIT1 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase-interacting protein 1) has been shown to regulate focal adhesion disassembly. We previously reported that GIT1 associates with MEK1 and acts as a scaffold to enhance ERK1/2 activation. Here, we show that GIT1 co-localizes with ERK1/2 in focal adhesions and regulates cell migration in vascular smooth muscle cells, HEK293 cells, and HeLa cells. Immunofluorescence showed that...
