| dimeric wh2 domains in vibrio vopf promote actin filament barbed-end uncapping and assisted elongation. | proteins containing repeats of the wasp homology 2 (wh2) actin-binding module are multifunctional regulators of actin nucleation and assembly. the bacterial effector vopf in vibrio cholerae, like vopl in vibrio parahaemolyticus, is a unique homodimer of three wh2 motifs linked by a c-terminal dimerization domain. we show that only the first and third wh2 domains of vopf bind g-actin in a non-nucleating, sequestered conformation. moreover, dimeric wh2 domains in vopf give rise to unprecedented re ... | 2013 | 23912276 |
