Paxillin also known as PXN is a cytoskeletal protein involved in the assembly of focal adhesions. It has a molecular weight of approximately 68 kDa. You will find Paxillin expressed widely in various tissues including the liver colon and lung. Paxillin plays a part in cell motility by interacting with other focal adhesion proteins. It plays a significant mechanical role by serving as a docking site for structural and signaling molecules.
Biological function summary
Paxillin serves key functions in cellular processes such as migration proliferation and survival. It interacts with different proteins including vinculin and talin forming part of a complex at the focal adhesion sites. The phosphorylation state of Paxillin can modulate its interactions and in this way influence the assembly of signaling complexes that control dynamic cellular processes.
Pathways
Paxillin participates in the integrin signaling and MAPK pathways. It operates by linking integrin receptors to the actin cytoskeleton facilitating signal transduction. Paxillin phosphorylation is an important regulatory mechanism within these pathways. In particular its interaction with focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and Src family kinases signifies its role in transmitting signals from the extracellular matrix to the cellular interior which impacts cell behavior and response.
Paxillin has links with osteosarcoma and lung cancer. Deregulation of Paxillin expression or its phosphorylation state contributes to oncogenic transformation and tumor progression. In cancer Paxillin associates with altered activity of proteins such as Src and FAK exacerbating disease states. This relationship highlights Paxillin's potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target in treating related malignancies.
