144 p.Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2001.In this study, I have probed the mechanisms of eukaryotic cell migration by fusing the genes encoding proteins involved in cell migration to the gene for a green fluorescent protein, GFP. I ascertained that the novel fusion protein expressed by cells transfected with alpha5-GFP is correctly localized, is surface-expressed in a heterodimeric form, and restores the ability of a cell line void of alpha5 expression to adhere and to spread on a fibronectin substrate. By viewing and comparing images taken from individual live cells at numerous stages of the migration cycle, I have characterized the role of the alpha5 integrin, paxillin, and alpha-actinin in the migration proce...
