Similar to vinculin, a-actinin is enriched at the base of filopodial actin filaments in cells with wild-type EGFR (Fig.1C).5 Cells with EGFR (679-AA) display a distinct a-actinin staining pattern charac- terized by small puncta at the cell peri- phery along with periodic staining in the dense cortical actin region and the sparse actin network in the lamellum. The late stage FA marker zyxin is recruited to © 2012 Landes Bioscience. FAs at stress fiber tips in EGFR-null mouse fibroblasts (Fig.2A).

Altogether our data suggest EGFR is compartmentalized to relatively immature FAs during cell adhesion (Fig.3A). As FAs mature they grow in size and incor- porate additional constituent molecules.24 Immature FAs are smaller in size and relatively short-lived.

It has also been shown that the p130Cas signaling adaptor is required for EGFR complex formation with integrins recog- nizing RGD motifs,12 and we suspect additional adaptor proteins have yet to be identified. Integrin/EGFR complex formation and its impact on adhesion- induced signaling have traditionally been viewed as distinct processes. We propose that these processes are intimately linked and that regulation is bidirectional. The ability of EGFR to switch integrin bind- ing partners is probably important in allowing cells to parse and adjust to extracellular cues in a physiological con- text. Data from this addendum suggest that EGFR/integrin complexes are resident in immature FAs which have a higher rate of turnover compared with © 2012 Landes Bioscience. mature FAs.21 Because of their constant turnoverimmatureFAscanrapidlysample and adjust to the extracellular environ- ment. Rapid turnover is also necessary for cell migration. Thus immature FAs represent an ideal platform to integrate Do not distribute. information from extracellular cues to regulate formation of membrane protru- sions. We also suspect interactions with different RGD-containing extracellular matrix proteins may influence formation of distinct integrin/EGFR complexes. As in vivo environments are seldom homogeneous in matrix composition, cells undoubtedly integrate signals from many distinct EGFR/integrin complexes simultaneously. How these signals are interpreted and their hierarchy in rela- tion to membrane protrusion outcomes is an interesting future direction.
