  • In invertebrates, UNC-45 regulates myosin stability and functions. Vertebrates have two distinct isoforms of the protein: UNC-45B, expressed in muscle cells only and UNC-45A, expressed in all cells and implicated in regulating both Non-Muscle Myosin II (NMII)- and microtubule (MT)-associated functions. Here we show that both, in vitro and in cells, UNC-45A binds to the MT lattice leading to MT bending, breakage and depolymerization. Furthermore, we show that UNC-45A destabilizes MTs independent of its NMII C-terminal binding domain and even in presence of the NMII inhibitor blebbistatin. These findings identified UNC-45A as a novel type of MT-severing protein with a not mutually exclusive but rather dual role in regulating NMII activity and MT stability. Because many human diseases, from cancer to neurodegenerative diseases, are caused by or associated with deregulation of MT stability our findings have profound implications in both, the biology of MTs as well as the biology of human diseases and possible therapeutic implications for their treatment.
