SMIFH2 was used to decipher the role of mDia2 in controlling microtubule dynamics and myofibroblast differentiation.1

Biochem/physiol Actions

SMIFH2 is an inhibitor of formin homology 2 domains. The compound is a first small molecule inhibitor of formin-mediated actin assembly that disrupts formin dependent processes from yeast to mammals. SMIFH2 may be a useful drug for identifying cellular processes dependent on formin-mediated actin assembly in a broad range of experimental systems. Formin is an actin nucleation factor.

The process of pollen germination is crucial for flowering plant reproduction, but the mechanisms through which pollen grains establish polarity and select germination sites are not well understood. In this study, we report that a formin family protein, AtFH5, is localized

Fibroblasts transformed by the proto-oncogene Src form individual invadopodia that can spontaneously self-organize into large matrix-degrading superstructures called rosettes. However, the mechanisms by which the invadopodia can spatiotemporally reorganize their architecture is not well understood. Here, we show that Hic-5

Filopodia, dynamic membrane protrusions driven by polymerization of an actin filament core, can adhere to the extracellular matrix and experience both external and cell-generated pulling forces. The role of such forces in filopodia adhesion is however insufficiently understood. Here, we
