Caveolae are plasma membrane invaginations that require caveolin proteins for their biogenesis. Recently, our laboratory reported a new role for caveolae in the cell response to mechanical stress (Sinha et al, Cell, 2011). Mutations in the CAV3 gene (muscle isoform), which lead to Cav3 retention in the Golgi apparatus, are associated with muscular dystrophies (MD). My project consists in identifying the functional link between Cav3 mutations and MDs, which exhibit defects in membrane integrity and repair, and in muscle homeostasis.In Cav3-P28L and Cav3-R26Q mutated human myotubes, I showed a lack of caveolae structures at the plasma membrane. This results in a failed buffering of membrane tension increase upon mechanical stress, which leads...
