How the Listeria monocytogenes ActA protein converts actin polymerization into a motile force.

G A Smith1, D A Portnoy.   

Abstract

The ActA protein is an essential determinant of pathogenicity that is responsible for the actin-based motility of Listeria monocytogenes in mammalian cells and cell-free extracts. ActA appears to control at least four functions that collectively lead to actin-based motility: (1) initiation of actin polymerization, (2) polarization of ActA function, (3) transformation of actin polymerization into a motile force and (4) acceleration of movement mediated by the host protein profilin.
