Myosin II disassembly in Dictyostelium discoideum is regulated by three structurally related myosin heavy chain kinases (myosin II heavy chain kinase A [MHCK-A], -B, and -C). We show that the WD repeat domain of MHCK-C is unique in that it mediates both substrate targeting and subcellular localization, revealing a target for regulation that is distinct from those of the other MHCKs.
盘基网柄菌中的肌球蛋白II解聚由三种结构相关的肌球蛋白重链激酶(肌球蛋白II重链激酶A [MHCK-A]、-B和-C)调节。我们发现,MHCK-C的WD重复结构域具有独特性,它既能介导底物靶向,又能介导亚细胞定位,揭示了一个与其他MHCKs不同的调节靶点。
