| Abstract | The nucleotide state of actin (ATP, ADP-Pi, or ADP) is known to impact its interactions with other actin molecules upon polymerization as well as with multiple actin binding proteins both in the monomeric and filamentous states of actin. Recently, molecular dynamics simulations predicted that a sequence located at the interface of subdomains 1 and 3 (W-loop; residues 165–172) changes from an unstructured loop to a β-turn conformation upon ATP hydrolysis (Zheng, X., Diraviyam, K., and Sept, D. (2007) Biophys. J. 93, 1277–1283). This region participates directly in the binding to other subunits in F-actin as well as to cofilin, profilin, and WH2 domain proteins and, therefore, could contribute to the nucleotide sensitivity of these interactions. The present study demonstrates a reciprocal communication between the W-loop region and the nucleotide binding cleft on actin. Point mutagenesis of residues 167, 169, and 170 and their site-specific labeling significantly affect the nucleotide release from the cleft region, whereas the ATP/ADP switch alters the fluorescence of probes located in the W-loop. In the ADP-Pi state, the W-loop adopts a conformation similar to that in the ATP state but different from the ADP state. Binding of latrunculin A to the nucleotide cleft favors the ATP-like conformation of the W-loop, whereas ADP-ribosylation of Arg-177 forces the W-loop into a conformation distinct from those in the ADP and ATP-states. Overall, our experimental data suggest that the W-loop of actin is a nucleotide sensor, which may contribute to the nucleotide state-dependent changes in F-actin and nucleotide state-modulated interactions of both G- and F-actin with actin-binding proteins. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
