    Notizen: Summary Cytokinesis consists of a contractile phase followed by sealing of the connecting midbody to form two separated cells. To determine how soon the midbody sealed after cleavage furrow contraction, the fluorescent dye Lucifer Yellow CH(457.3 M.W.) was microinjected into cells at various intervals after cleavage had begun. Mitotic PtK2 cells were recorded with video-microscopy so that daughter cells in the epithelial sheet could be identified for several hours after cell division. One daughter cell of each pair followed was microinjected to determine whether the dye diffused into the other daughter cell. For intervals up to four hours after the beginning of cytokinesis, diffusion took place between daughter cells. After this time the dye did not spread between daughter cells. In sea urchin blastomeres of the first, second and third divisions, Lucifer Yellow passed between daughter blastomeres only during the first 15 min after cytokinesis. If one cell of a two-cell, four-cell or eight-cell embryo was microinjected more than 15 min after the last cleavage, the dye remained in the injected cell and was distributed to all progeny of that cell, resulting in blastulae that were either one-half, one-quarter or one-eighth fluorescent, respectively. Thus, although cleavage furrow contraction takes approximately the same amount of time in sea urchin blastomeres and PtK2 cells, the time of midbody sealing differs dramatically in the two cell types. Our results also indicate the importance of knowing the mitotic history of cells when injecting dyes into interphase cells for the purpose of detecting gap junctions.

    Notizen: Infection of host cells by Listeria monocytogenes results in the recruitment of cytoplasmic actin into a tail-like appendage that projects from one end of the bacterium. Each filamentous actin tail progressively lengthenes, providing the force which drives the bacterium in a forward direction through the cytoplasm and later results in Listeria cell-to-cell spread. Host cell actin monomers are incorporated into the filamentous actin tail at a discrete site, the bacterial-actin tail interface. We have studied the consequences of microinjecting three different actin monomer-binding proteins on the actin tail assembly and Listeria intracellular movement. Introduction of high concentrations of profilin (estimated injected intracellular concentration 11-22 m̈M) into infected PtK2 cells causes a marked slowing of actin tail elongation and bacterial migration. Lower intracellular concentrations of two other injected higher affinity monomer-sequenstering proteins, Vitamin D-binding protein (DBP; 1-2 m̈M) and DNase I (6-7 m̈M) completely block bacterial-induced actin assembly and bacterial migration. The onset of inhibition by each protein is gradual (10-20 min) indicating that the mechanisms by which these proteins interfere with Listeria-induced actin assembly are likely to be complex. To exclude the possibility that Listeria recruits preformed actin filaments to generate the tails and that these monomer-binding proteins act by depolymerizing such performed actin filaments, living infected cells have been injected with fluorescently labeled phalloidin (3 m̈M). Although the stress fibers are labeled, no fluorescent phalloidin is found in the tails of the moving bacteria. These results demonstrate that Listeria-induced actin assembly in PtK2 cells is the result of assembly of actin monomers into new filaments and that Listeria's ability to recruit polymerization competent monomeric actin is very sensitive to the introduction of exogenous actin monomer-binding proteins. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Organization and structure of actin filament bundles in Listeria-infected cells (1995)

    Notizen: During its motion inside host cells, Listeria monocytogenes promotes the formation of a column of actin filaments that extends outward from the distal end of the moving bacterium. The column is constructed of short actin filaments that polymerize at the bacteria-column interface. To get a measure of filament organization in the column, Listeria grown in cultured PtK2 cells were studied with steady state fluorescence polarization, confocal microscopy, and whole cell intermediate voltage electron microscopy. Although actin filament ordering was higher in nearby stress fibers than in the Listeria-associated actin, four distinct areas of ordering could be observed in fluorescence polarization ratio images of bacteria: (1) the surface of the bacteria, (2) the cytoplasm next to the bacteria, (3) the outer shell of the actin column, and (4) the core of the column. Filaments were preferentially oriented parallel to the long axis of the column with highest ordering along the long axis of the bacterial surface and in the shell of the tail. The lowest ordering was in the core (where filaments are possibly also shorter with respect to the cup and the shell), whereas in the adjacent cytoplasm, filaments were oriented perpendicular to the column. A mutant of Listeria that can polymerize actin around itself but cannot move intracellularly does not have its actin organized along the bacterial surface. Thus the alignment of the actin filaments along the bacterial surfaces may be important for the intracellular movement. These conclusions are also supported by confocal microscopy and whole mount electron microscopic data that also reveal that actin filaments can be deposited asymmetrically around the long axis of the bacteria, a distribution that may affect the direction of motility of Listeria monocytogenes inside infected cells. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: Listeria monocytogenes can penetrate and multiply within a variety of cell types, including the PtK2 kidney epithelial line. Once released within the cytoplasm, L. monocytogenes acquires the capacity for rapid movement through the host cell [Dabiri et al., 1990: Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. 87:6068-6072]. In the process, actin monomers are inserted in proximity to one end of the bacterium, forming a column or tail of actin filaments [Sanger et al., 1992: Infect. Immun. 60:3609-3619]. The rate of new actin filament growth correlates closely with the speed of bacterial migration. In this study we have used fluorescently labeled actin and alpha-actinin to monitor the movement and turnover rate of actin and alpha-actinin molecules in the tails. The half-lives of the actin and alpha-actinin present in the tails are approximately the same: actin, 58.7 sec; alpha-actinin, 55.3 sec. The half-life of alpha-actinin surrounding a dividing bacterium was 30 sec, whereas its half-life in the tails that formed behind the two daughter cells was about 20-30% longer. We discovered that the speeds of the bacteria are not constant, but show aperiodic episodes of decreased and increased speeds. There is a fluctuation also in the intensities of the fluorescent probes at the bacterium/tail interface, implying that there is a fluctuation in the number of actin filaments forming there. There was no strong correlation, however, between these fluctuating intensities and changes in speed of the bacteria. These measurements suggest that while actin polymerization at the bacterial surface is coupled to the movement of the bacterium, the periodic changes in intracellular motility are not a simple function of the number of actin filaments nucleating at the bacterial surfaces. © 1994 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Notizen: Summary Eggs and embryos of Arbacia punctulata were microinjected with the fluorescent dye, Lucifer yellow CH, using a simple pressure injection system. When injected into eggs that were subsequently fertilized, the dye was distributed throughout all cells of the developing embryo. If one cell of a two-cell embryo was injected, dye did not diffuse into the uninjected blastomere. During subsequent development, all progeny of the injected cell contained dye resulting in an embryo that was half-fluorescent. Blue light irradiation of a two-cell embryo, one cell of which had been injected with Lucifer yellow, caused the injected blastomere to stop further divisions while the uninjected blastomere developed normally and was free of dye. These results indicate that the first two blastomeres of Arbacia embryos are not electrically coupled, nor up to the time of hatching, is there any coupling between cells in one half of the first cleavage plane and cells in the other half.
