Abstract
Stimulation of cells by epidermal growth factor induces a rapid polymerisation of actin in the cortical skeleton. Activation of the EGF-receptor leads to autophosphorylation and to phosphorylation of specific intracellular substrates. Here we show that actin is phosphorylated in vitro and in vivo upon EGF stimulation. Two-dimensional phospho-amino acid analysis shows that phosphorylation occurs on serine, not on tyrosine residues.
