Integrins Regulate Rac Targeting by Internalization of Membrane Domains
Miguel A. del Pozo,1,2,3*Nazilla B. Alderson,1,2William B. Kiosses,1Hui-Hsien Chiang,1Richard G. W. Anderson,4Martin A. Schwartz1,5
Translocation of the small GTP-binding protein Rac1 to the cellplasma membrane is essential for activating downstream effectorsand requires integrin-mediated adhesion of cells to extracellularmatrix. We report that active Rac1 binds preferentially to low-density,cholesterol-rich membranes, and specificity is determined atleast in part by membrane lipids. Cell detachment triggeredinternalization of plasma membrane cholesterol and lipid raftmarkers. Preventing internalization maintained Rac1 membranetargeting and effector activation in nonadherent cells. Regulationof lipid rafts by integrin signals may regulate the locationof membrane domains such as lipid rafts and thereby controldomain-specific signaling events in anchorage-dependent cells.
