Figure 8.

Model of hGAAP-dependent control of cell adhesion and migration. hGAAP both stimulates loss of Ca2+ from the Golgi/ER, thereby activating SOCE, and it promotes activation of SOCE by empty stores. The resulting localized increase in [Ca2+]i near the plasma membrane stimulates calpain 2 activity, leading to increased turnover of focal adhesions. This in turn leads to increased speed of cell spreading and more rapid migration. See text in Results and Discussion for further details.
