Description
Summary:Brigitte M. Jockusch 1 , Stefan Hüttelmaier 1 ,2 and Susanne Illenberger 1 1 Cell Biology, Zoological Institute, Technical University of Braunschweig, D-38092 Braunschweig, Germany; and 2 Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York, New York 10461 RNA processing, directed transport along cytoskeletal tracks, and site-specific translation of mRNA at the cell periphery are considered discrete steps in the generation of microfilament-membrane adhesion complexes. A recently identified member of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein family, raver1, may couple these steps and contribute to the assembly and maintenance of these structures.
