Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

CAPZB encodes the β subunit of the heterodimeric F-actin barbed-end capping protein (CapZ), which binds F-actin through C-terminal residues—two conserved leucines being critical for binding activity—and pairs with a CAPZA α subunit to cap filament barbed ends and thereby set actin filament length (PMID:7665558, PMID:27206859). By limiting barbed-end elongation, CAPZB controls the architecture and mechanics of actin networks: it tunes mitotic cortex thickness and cortical tension (PMID:28530659), and restrains actomyosin contractility such that its loss in hepatocytes raises traction forces and tissue stiffness, activating YAP-driven proliferation through ROCK-dependent mechanotransduction (PMID:30878582). This length-control function underlies its roles in specialized actin-based structures, including cochlear hair-cell stereocilia, where CAPZB concentrates at tips in a mechanotransduction-dependent manner together with TWF2 and is required to maintain stereocilia length and width (PMID:28899994, PMID:31902726). CAPZB also acts beyond bulk actin regulation: it controls mitotic spindle orientation by regulating dynein/dynactin assembly and motor activity at the cell cortex and governs planar divisions in the developing neuroepithelium (PMID:28803871), and it is recruited by ALIX to multivesicular bodies to prevent branched F-actin accumulation, enabling MVB trafficking and exosome secretion (PMID:40185104). CAPZB is required for neural crest migration and craniofacial morphogenesis, with a human balanced translocation disrupting the gene (PMID:26758871), and its activity is regulated post-translationally by HDAC8-mediated desuccinylation at K57/K95/K235, with muscle-specific isoforms generated by QK/PTB-controlled alternative splicing of exon 9 (PMID:42050207, PMID:23525800).

1995 Human CAPZB (β subunit of Cap Z) binds F-actin via its C-terminal domain; cosedimentation assays showed binding affinity equal to chicken Cap Z. Amino acid substitutions of two conserved leucines in the C-terminal actin-binding domain of the chicken β subunit resulted in significant decreases in F-actin binding activity, identifying these residues as critical for actin binding. The human CAPZB gene was mapped to chromosome 1p36.1. F-actin cosedimentation assay; site-directed mutagenesis of conserved leucine residues; chromosomal mapping The Journal of biological chemistry High 7665558
2017 CAPZB regulates actin filament length at the mitotic cortex. Loss-of-function of CAPZB (along with CFL1 and DIAPH1) altered mitotic cortex thickness, and both increasing and decreasing thickness decreased cortical tension, indicating the mitotic cortex is poised near a tension maximum. CAPZB knockdown thus modulates cell surface tension through control of cortical actin network architecture. RNAi knockdown with live-cell imaging of cortex thickness; cortical tension measurements (micropipette aspiration); computational modeling Nature cell biology High 28530659
2019 CAPZB (CAPZ) restrains actomyosin contractility by capping actin barbed ends: Capzb conditional knockout in mouse hepatocytes led to altered stress fiber and focal adhesion dynamics, enhanced myosin activity, increased traction forces, and increased liver stiffness. This mechanical change activated YAP in parallel to the Hippo pathway, causing hepatocyte proliferation and liver overgrowth. ROCK inhibition or Yap1 deletion reversed these phenotypes, placing CAPZB upstream of mechanotransduction-driven YAP activation.

2017 CAPZB is required for stereocilia length and width regulation in cochlear hair cells. CAPZB is present at ~100 copies per stereocilium and concentrates at stereocilia tips as development progresses. Hair-cell-specific Capzb deletion (Atoh1-Cre) eliminated auditory and vestibular function; Capzb-null stereocilia initially developed normally but then shortened and disappeared, with concomitant decrease in width. Overexpression of CAPZB2 prevented normal elongation and caused irregular widening, indicating capping protein participates in stereocilia widening by preventing newly elongating actin filaments from depolymerizing.

2016 CAPZB controls spindle orientation independently of its classical role in actin cytoskeleton. RNAi depletion of CAPZB in a micropatterning/Gαi-induction cell model disrupted spindle orientation. Mechanistically, CAPZB regulates the assembly, stability, and motor activity of the dynein/dynactin complex at the cell cortex and controls mitotic microtubule dynamics. In vivo, CAPZB controls planar divisions in the developing neuroepithelium.

2016 CAPZB regulates cell morphology, differentiation, and neural crest migration in craniofacial morphogenesis. In zebrafish capzb−/− mutants, loss of capzb disrupted neural crest cell migration, caused cleft phenotype by loss of the median cell population, and disrupted trunk neural crest migration (melanophore disorganization). capzb was required for differentiation of both myogenic stem cells and neural crest cells. capzb overexpression caused embryonic lethality, indicating dosage sensitivity.

2016 In fission yeast, TORC2-dependent phosphorylation of the actin-capping protein Acp1 (equivalent of mammalian CAPZα) controls cytokinetic actomyosin ring (CAR) stability and modulates Acp1-Acp2 (CAPZA-CAPZB) heterodimer formation; disruption of TORC2 or this phosphorylation impairs CAR morphology and constriction. Fission yeast genetics; co-immunoprecipitation; phosphorylation analysis; live-cell imaging of CAR dynamics Journal of cell science Medium 27206859
2016 CAPZB knockdown in epithelioid sarcoma cells inhibited cell growth, invasion, and migration. Proteomic profiling after CAPZB silencing identified INI1 (SWI/SNF complex) as a potential upstream regulator of CAPZB; silencing CAPZB decreased INI1 protein expression in INI1-positive cells, while INI1 induction in INI1-deficient cells increased CAPZB mRNA. siRNA knockdown in EpiS cell lines; invasion/migration assays; iTRAQ quantitative proteomics; INI1 overexpression; IPA pathway analysis BMC cancer Medium 26965049
2009 A spermatid-specific CAPZ heterodimer (CAPZA3/CAPZB variant isoform) is essential for F-actin network organization during spermiation. In repro32 mice with a missense mutation in Capza3, CAPZB variant isoform localization was altered concurrent with disruption of the F-actin network, failure to shed excess cytoplasm, and disorganization of the sperm flagellum midpiece. This established that the CAPZA3/CAPZB heterodimer regulates F-actin dynamics required for cytoplasm removal and midpiece integrity.

2020 CAPZB localizes to stereocilia tips at row 2 of cochlear inner hair cells in a mechanotransduction-dependent manner. In transduction mutants (Tmc1/Tmc2 or Tmie knockouts), CAPZB and its partner TWF2 failed to concentrate at row 2 tips. Block of transduction channels also redistributed CAPZB from row 2 tips, demonstrating that mechanotransduction activity specifies CAPZB subcellular localization at stereocilia.

2013 Vasopressin treatment of kidney collecting duct cells caused significant changes in abundance of CAPZB at the apical plasma membrane. CAPZB was identified as one of five F-actin end-binding proteins involved in vasopressin-induced F-actin reorganization, which is required for aquaporin-2 apical trafficking and increased water permeability.

2013 Quaking (QK) promotes inclusion of Capzb exon 9 in opposition to repression by polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (PTB) during muscle cell differentiation. Mass spectrometry of proteins selected by the Capzb exon 9 intron (containing ACUAA STAR motifs) via RNA affinity chromatography identified QK as a splicing regulator of this exon, establishing a mechanism for muscle-specific alternative splicing of CAPZB.

2025 ALIX recruits actin-capping proteins CAPZA1/CAPZB to prevent branched filamentous actin (F-actin) accumulation around multivesicular bodies (MVBs), enabling MVB trafficking to the cell periphery for exosome secretion. PTPN23 (competitor of ALIX for syntenin binding) does not recruit CAPZA1/CAPZB. This ALIX–CAPZA1/CAPZB mechanism is required for the pro-tumorigenic exosome secretion pathway.

2026 HDAC8 desuccinylates CAPZB at lysine residues K57, K95, and K235. CAPZB regulates cytoskeletal remodeling and fibroblast-to-myofibroblast differentiation by capping the barbed end of F-actin. Desuccinylation (removal of succinyl groups) inhibits CAPZB function and promotes cytoskeletal remodeling; mutation of the modification sites confirmed that succinylation inhibits CAPZB activity.
