Annexin-A5 assembled into two-dimensional arrays promotes cell membrane repair

Abstract: Eukaryotic cells possess a universal repair machinery that ensures rapid resealing of plasma membrane disruptions. Before resealing, the torn membrane is submitted to considerable tension, which functions to expand the disruption. Here we show that annexin-A5 (AnxA5), a protein that self-assembles into two-dimensional (2D) arrays on membranes upon Ca2+ activation, promotes membrane repair. Compared with wild-type mouse perivascular cells, AnxA5-null cells exhibit a severe membrane repair defect. Membrane repai… Show more

“…24 Annexins A5 and A6 have also been implicated in the process of PMR. 51,53 The ability of ANXA5 to assemble into 2-dimensional arrays at the sites of membrane injury in response to Ca 2C has been implicated in preventing wound expansion by keeping the membrane edges together. This is prevented in cells lacking ANXA5 causing PMR defect.…”

“…ANXA5 was found to bind and form 2D arrays exclusively around the edges of the wound perimeter. Further, perivascular mouse cells deficient of ANXA5 exhibited a severe membrane repair defect that was rescued by the addition of exogenous recombinant ANXA5 protein [34] . The 2D ANXA5 array formed at the torn membrane is proposed to prevent wound expansion by restricting membrane tension and keeping the membrane edges together to promote resealing.…”

“…In vertebrates, annexins are known to display a broad range of biological activities including response to inflammation, membrane traffic and adhesion, anticoagulation, signal transduction, developmental processes and membrane repair (Bouter et al, 2011;Draeger et al, 2011). In parasites, annexins are suggested to be involved in maintenance of membrane structure (Peattie et al, 1989;Tararam et al, 2010), anti-inflammatory activity (Zhang et al, 2007) and fibrinolytic activity (de la Torre-Escudero et al, 2012).…”
