Proposed working model accounting for the TIP150-CTN interaction in directional cell migration. TIP150 functions as a microtubule plus end stabilizer that interacts with CTN to promote microtubule-actin cortex interaction. EGF stimulation promotes phosphorylation of CTN, which accelerates a dynamic TIP150-CTN interaction at the leading edges of migrating cells for directional movement. Thus, the TIP150-CTN complex serves as a link to orchestrate directional cell migration via coupling dynamic microtubule plus ends with the cell cortex.
