Syndecan-4 and integrins are the primary
transmembrane receptors of focal adhesions in cells adherent to
extracellular matrix molecules. Syndesmos is a cytoplasmic protein that
interacts specifically with the cytoplasmic domain of syndecan-4, and
it co-localizes with syndecan-4 in focal contacts. In the present study
we sought possible interactors with syndesmos. We find that syndesmos
interacts with the focal adhesion adaptor protein paxillin. The
binding of syndesmos to paxillin is direct, and these interactions are triggered by the activation of protein kinase C. Syndesmos also binds
the paxillin homolog, Hic-5. The connection of syndecan-4 with paxillin
through syndesmos parallels the connection between paxillin and
integrins and may thus reflect the cooperative signaling of these two
receptors in the assembly of focal adhesions and actin stress fibers.
The nucleotide sequence(s) reported in this paper has been submitted to the GenBankTM/EBI Data Bank with accession number(s) AF435792.
