The Role of Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation in Actin Polymerization

液-液相分离在肌动蛋白聚合中的作用

Abstract

To date, it has been shown that the phenomenon of liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) underlies many seemingly completely different cellular processes. This provided a new idea of the spatiotemporal organization of the cell. The new paradigm makes it possible to provide answers to many long-standing, but still unresolved questions facing the researcher. In particular, spatiotemporal regulation of the assembly/disassembly of the cytoskeleton, including the formation of actin filaments, becomes clearer. To date, it has been shown that coacervates of actin-binding proteins that arise during the phase separation of the liquid-liquid type can integrate G-actin and thereby increase its concentration to initiate polymerization. It has also been shown that the activity intensification of actin-binding proteins that control actin polymerization, such as N-WASP and Arp2/3, can be caused by their integration into liquid droplet coacervates formed by signaling proteins on the inner side of the cell membrane.
