要旨:
Integrin adhesion complexes are essential membrane-associated cellular compartments for metazoan life. The formation of initial integrin adhesion complexes is a dynamic process involving focal adhesion proteins assembled at the integrin cytoplasmic tails and the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane. The weak multivalent protein interactions within the complex and with the plasma membrane suggest that liquid-liquid phase separation could play a role in the nascent adhesion assembly. Here, we report that solid-supported lipid membranes supplemented with phosphoinositides induce the phase separation of minimal integrin adhesion condensates composed of integrin beta 1 tails, kindlin, talin, paxillin, and FAK at physiological ionic strengths and protein concentrations. We show that the presence of phosphoinositides is key to enriching kindlin and talin on the lipid membrane, which is necessary to further induce the phase separation of paxillin and FAK at the membrane. Our data demonstrate that lipid membrane surfaces set the local solvent conditions for steering the membrane localized phase separation even in a regime where no condensate formation of proteins occurs in bulk solution.
