摘要：
p21-Activated kinases including p21-activated kinase 2 contributed to the regulation of actin cytoskeleton and cell dynamics. In order to investigate the function of PAK2 on the maturation of Xenopus oocyte, PAK2-NT (PAK2-N-terminal,PAK2-NT) and PAK2-NTm (PAK2-N-terminal mutation) mRNA were microinjected into Xenopus oocyte respectively. Under fluorescent microscopy germinal vesicle breakdown was observed during cytokinesis. To further observe the relationship of oocyte cytokinesis, polar body formation and Cdc42 activity, confocal microscopy with time-lapse was employed. As a result, occurrences of germinal vesicle breakdown in oocytes were similar to those oocytes injected with PAK2-NT mRNA or injected with PAK2-NTm mRNA,but no cytokinesis and polar body formation were observed in oocytes injected with PAK2-NT mRNA or PAK2-NTm mRNA. These results indicated that PAK2 involved in Xenopus oocytes cytokinesis and polar body formation independent of Cdc42 activity.
