Disease relevance of Setx

  • These fragments completely blocked actin tail formation and motility of Listeria, both in mouse brain extract and in Ptk2 cells overexpressing Scar1 constructs [1].
  • The Arp2/3 complex also interacts with members of the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) [8] family - Scar1 [9] [10] and WASP itself [11] [1].
 

High impact information on Setx

  • Here, we study the involvement of Scar1, Scar2, N-WASP, and Arp2/3 complex in dorsal ruffle formation in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) [2].
 

Biological context of Setx

  • Moreover, overexpression of N-terminal fragments of Scar2 (but not N-WASP or Scar1 or Scar3) interfere with NIH 3T3 Golgi polarization but not with cell migration [3].
