Disease[SPN90_HUMAN] A chromosomal aberration involving NCKIPSD/AF3p21 is found in therapy-related leukemia. Translocation t(3;11)(p21;q23) with KMT2A/MLL1.[1] Function[ARPC4_BOVIN] Functions as actin-binding component of the Arp2/3 complex which is involved in regulation of actin polymerization and together with an activating nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) mediates the formation of branched actin networks. Seems to contact the mother actin filament (By similarity). [ARC1B_BOVIN] Functions as component of the Arp2/3 complex which is involved in regulation of actin polymerization and together with an activating nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) mediates the formation of branched actin networks (By similarity). [ARPC5_BOVIN] Functions as component of the Arp2/3 complex which is involved in regulation of actin polymerization and together with an activating nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) mediates the formation of branched actin networks (By similarity). [ARP2_BOVIN] Functions as ATP-binding component of the Arp2/3 complex which is involved in regulation of actin polymerization and together with an activating nucleation-promoting factor (NPF) mediates the formation of branched actin networks. Seems to contact the pointed end of the daughter actin filament. [SPN90_HUMAN] Has an important role in stress fiber formation induced by active diaphanous protein homolog 1 (DRF1).

Publication Abstract from PubMedUnlike the WASP family of Arp2/3 complex activators, WISH/DIP/SPIN90 (WDS) family proteins activate actin filament nucleation by the Arp2/3 complex without the need for a preformed actin filament. This allows WDS proteins to initiate branched actin network assembly by providing seed filaments that activate WASP-bound Arp2/3 complex. Despite their important role in actin network initiation, it is unclear how WDS proteins drive the activating steps that require both WASP and pre-existing actin filaments during WASP-mediated nucleation. Here, we show that SPIN90 folds into an armadillo repeat domain that binds a surface of Arp2/3 complex distinct from the two WASP sites, straddling a hinge point that may stimulate movement of the Arp2 subunit into the activated short-pitch conformation. SPIN90 binds a surface on Arp2/3 complex that overlaps with actin filament binding, explaining how it could stimulate the same structural rearrangements in the complex as pre-existing actin filaments. By revealing how WDS proteins activate the Arp2/3 complex, these data provide a molecular foundation to understand initiation of dendritic actin networks and regulation of Arp2/3 complex by its activators.
