Supplementary information

Actin Regulatory Protein CAPG also known as MCP is an important cytoskeletal protein involved in actin filament dynamics. Other common names include CAPG protein and capping proteins. CAPG binds to the barbed ends of actin filaments modulating their length and polymerization. This protein has a molecular weight of approximately 39 kDa. It is expressed in various tissues with significant expression in HeLa cells which are often used in studies related to actin regulation.
Biological function summary

This actin regulatory protein serves as an important player in the remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton. CAPG functions by capping the fast-growing ends of actin filaments which influences cell motility and structure. It is not known to be part of a larger protein complex but interacts closely with other actin-modulating proteins. MCP's regulation of cytoskeletal dynamics allows cells to respond swiftly to environmental changes assisting cellular processes like migration and secretion.

Pathways

CAPG is intricately involved in pathways controlling cell motility and structure including the cytoskeletal rearrangement pathway. It works alongside proteins such as cofilin and Arp2/3 complex which also regulate actin dynamics. These proteins together facilitate processes like cell division and migration making their interactions essential for proper cellular function.

CAPG's regulation is pertinent in cancer metastasis particularly in its relation to HeLa cells used in cancer studies. It affects tumor cell invasiveness by altering the cytoskeleton connecting it to processes involving other regulatory proteins like Rac1. Additionally CAPG plays a role in neurodegenerative disorders by impacting neuronal cell motility where interactions with actin-modulating proteins are important. Understanding CAPG's role gives insight into potential interventions for these disorders.
