The involvement of tyrosine protein phosphorylation in the regulation of endothelial cell (EC) contraction and barrier function is poorly understood. We have previously shown that myosin light chain (MLC) phosphorylation catalyzed by a novel 214 kDa EC myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) isoform is a k

During the crawling movements of non-muscle cells, myosin II-containing structures assemble and disassemble with a high degree of spatial and temporal heterogeneity. In order to understand how this is controlled, we examined factors that influence the association of myosin II with detergent-resistan
To elucidate the role of phosphorylation in regulation of intracellular distribution of myosin II, we have characterized mutant Dictyostelium cells expressing myosin II that could not be regulated by the phosphorylation on the mapped heavy chain sites, the light chain site, or both sites.

## Abstract Myostatin is a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth. We have previously reported that recombinant myostatin protein inhibits DNA and protein synthesis in C2C12 cells. Our objective was to assess if C2C12 cells express myostatin, determine its sub‐cellular localization and the de
## Abstract The __nm23‐H1__ gene is known as a potential metastasis suppressor gene in various types of carcinomas. However, the role of __nm23‐H1__ in colorectal carcinoma still remains controversial and the cellular mechanisms by which its protein may modulate the metastatic phenotype are not yet
