Endosomes generate localized Rho-ROCK-MLC2-based contractile signals via Endo 180 to promote adhesion disassembly (2006)
Journal Article
Sturge, J., Wienke, D., & Isacke, C. M. (2006). Endosomes generate localized Rho-ROCK-MLC2-based contractile signals via Endo 180 to promote adhesion disassembly. Journal of Cell Biology, 175(2), 337-347. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.200602125

The regulated assembly and disassembly of focal adhesions and adherens junctions contributes to cell motility and tumor invasion. Pivotal in this process is phosphorylation of myosin light chain-2 (MLC2) by Rho kinase (ROCK) downstream of Rho activat...
