| Abstract | IQGAP1 has emerged as a key component in the regulation of cytoskeleton dynamics during cell migration, maintenance of adherens junctions, microbial pathogenesis and intracellular trafficking. IQGAP1 is known to localize to the protruding edge of lamellipodia in a variety of cell types and interact with regulators of actin dynamics. Here, we provide evidence suggesting a novel role of IQGAP1 in cell motility through cell edge retraction. In some of the cell lines examined, IQGAP1 was markedly separated from WAVE localization suggesting IQGAP1 may localize to retracting edges. B16F10 mouse melanoma cells exhibited the most restricted separation in which the appearance of GFP-IQGAP1 correlated with cell edge retraction velocity and the disappearance of mCherry-Arp3. These results demonstrate that in some cell types IQGAP1 may function to promote cell retraction not lamellipodium edge protrusion. In addition, we examined co-localization of IQGAP1 with adhesion site markers, myosin IIA, calmodulin and IQGAP2. In areas rich in IQGAP1 there was decreased immunofluorescence staining of vinculin, paxillin and phosphorylated-tyrosine indicating adhesion site disassembly. Interestingly, calmodulin, but not myosin IIA or IQGAP2, co-localized with IQGAP1 in areas of cell retraction. Overall these results suggest a new role of IQGAP1, distinct form IQGAP2, in cell migration through up regulation of contractility and downregulation of adhesion sites potentially through calmodulin interaction. |

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.
