Abstract:
:Dynamic assembly and remodeling of actin is critical for many cellular processes during development and stress adaptation. In filamentous fungi and budding yeast, actin cables align in a polarized manner along the mother-to-daughter cell axis, and are essential for the establishment and maintenance of polarity; moreover, they rapidly remodel in response to environmental cues to achieve an optimal system response. A formin at the tip region within a macromolecular complex, called the polarisome, is responsible for driving actin cable polymerization during polarity establishment. This polarisome undergoes dynamic assembly through spatial and temporally regulated interactions between its components. Understanding this process is important to comprehend the tuneable activities of the formin-centered nucleation core, which are regulated through divergent molecular interactions and assembly modes within the polarisome. In this Review, we focus on how intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) orchestrate the condensation of the polarisome components and the dynamic assembly of the complex. In addition, we address how these components are dynamically distributed in and out of the assembly zone, thereby regulating polarized growth. We also discuss the potential mechanical feedback mechanisms by which the force-induced actin polymerization at the tip of the budding yeast regulates the assembly and function of the polarisome.
