Dynamin is a 96-kDa protein that has multiple oligomerization states that influence its GTPase activity. A number of different dynamin effectors, including lipids, actin filaments, and SH3-domain-containing proteins, have been implicated in the regulation of dynamin oligomerization, though their roles in influencing dynamin oligomerization have been studied predominantly in vitro using recombinant proteins. Here, we identify higher order dynamin oligomers such as rings and helices in vitro and in live cells using fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM). FLIM detected GTP- and actin-dependent dynamin oligomerization at distinct cellular sites, including the cell membrane and transition zones where cortical actin transitions into stress fibers. Our study identifies a major role for direct dynamin-actin interactions and dynamin's GTPase activity in the regulation of dynamin oligomerization in cells.
发动蛋白是一种96千道尔顿的蛋白质,具有多种寡聚化状态,这些状态会影响其GTP酶活性。许多不同的发动蛋白效应物,包括脂质、肌动蛋白丝和含SH3结构域的蛋白质,都与发动蛋白寡聚化的调节有关,尽管它们在影响发动蛋白寡聚化方面的作用主要是在体外使用重组蛋白进行研究的。在这里,我们使用荧光寿命成像显微镜(FLIM)在体外和活细胞中鉴定出更高阶的发动蛋白寡聚体,如环和螺旋。FLIM在不同的细胞位点检测到了依赖于GTP和肌动蛋白的发动蛋白寡聚化,包括细胞膜和皮质肌动蛋白转变为应力纤维的过渡区。我们的研究确定了直接的发动蛋白-肌动蛋白相互作用和发动蛋白的GTP酶活性在细胞中发动蛋白寡聚化调节中的主要作用。
