title: Phosphorylation of filamin (ABP-280) regulates the binding to the lipid membrane, integrin, and actin.
abstract: Actin-binding protein (ABP-280; filamin) is a phosphoprotein present in the periphery of the cytoplasm, where it can cross-link actin filaments, associate with lipid membranes, and bind to membrane surface receptors. Given its function and localization in the cell, the hypothesis that it serves as a substrate for p56lck, a lymphocyte-specific member of the src family of protein tyrosine kinases associated with cell surface glycoproteins is considered. The results suggest conformationally-induced regulation of filamin (ABP-280).
