MolecularModeloftheMicrovillarCytoskeletonand OrganizationoftheBrushBorder JeffreyW.Brown,C.JamesMcKnight* DepartmentofPhysiologyandBiophysics,BostonUniversitySchoolofMedicine,Boston,Massachusetts,UnitedStatesofAmerica Abstract Background:Brushbordermicrovilliare,1-mmlongfinger-likeprojectionsemanatingfromtheapicalsurfacesofcertain, specializedabsorptiveepithelialcells.Ahighlysymmetrichexagonalarrayofthousandsoftheseuniformlysizedstructures form the brush border, which in addition to aiding in nutrient absorption also defends the large surface area against pathogens. Here, we present a molecular model of the protein cytoskeleton responsible for this dramatic cellular morphology. Methodology/Principal Findings: The model is constructed from published crystallographic and microscopic structures reportedbyseveralgroupsoverthelast30+years.Oureffortsresultedinasingle,unique,self-consistentarrangementof actin,fimbrin,villin,brushbordermyosin(Myo1A),calmodulin,andbrushborderspectrin.Thecentralactincorebundlethat supportsthemicrovillusisnearlysaturatedwithfimbrinandvillincross-linkersandhasadensitysimilartothatfoundin protein crystals. The proposed model accounts for all major proteinaceous components, reproduces the experimentally determinedstoichiometry,andisconsistentwiththesizeandmorphologyofthebiologicalbrushbordermembrane. Conclusions/Significance:Themodelpresentedherewillserveasastructuralframeworktoexplainmanyofthedynamic cellularprocessesoccurringoverseveraltimescales,suchasproteindiffusion,association,andturnover,lipidraftsorting, membrane deformation, cytoskeletal-membrane interactions, and even effacement of the brush border by invading pathogens. In addition, this model provides a structural basis for evaluating the equilibrium processes that result in the uniformsizeandstructureofthehighlydynamicmicrovilli.
