Src tyrosine kinases have been implicated in axonal growth and guidance; however,
the underlying cellular mechanisms are not well understood. Specifically, it is
unclear which aspects of actin organization and dynamics are regulated by Src in
neuronal growth cones. Here, we investigated the function of Src2 and one of its
substrates, cortactin, in lamellipodia and filopodia of Aplysia growth cones. We
found that up-regulation of Src2 activation state or cortactin increased
lamellipodial length, protrusion time, and actin network density, whereas
down-regulation had opposite effects. Furthermore, Src2 or cortactin
up-regulation increased filopodial density, length, and protrusion time, whereas
down-regulation promoted lateral movements of filopodia. Fluorescent speckle
microscopy revealed that rates of actin assembly and retrograde flow were not
affected in either case. In summary, our results support a model in which Src and
cortactin regulate growth cone motility by increasing actin network density and
protrusion persistence of lamellipodia by controlling the state of actin-driven
protrusion versus retraction. In addition, both proteins promote the formation
and stability of actin bundles in filopodia.
