& c$ g. |  c$ `* J& V1 R0 dThe protein tyrosine kinase Pyk2 (also designated RAFTK, CADTK, and CTK) and FAK are two members of a distinct family of nonreceptor tyrosine kinases. PYK2 and FAK share 45% amino acid sequence identity and a common domain structure: an N-terminal FERM domain followed by a protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) domain, three proline-rich regions, and a focal adhesion targeting (FAT) domain at the C terminus. Although FAK is expressed in most cells (Richardson and Parsons, 1996), Pyk2 exhibits a more restricted expression pattern with strongest expression in the central nervous system and in hemaoietic cells (Lev et al., 1995). FAK is a major intracellular signaling component of integrin-mediated cell adhesion (Schlaepfer et al., 1999) and plays a role in signaling pathways mediated by growth factor receptors. PYK2, on the other hand, is activated by a variety of extracellular cues including agonists of G protein–coupled receptors, intracellular Ca 2 concentration, inflammatory cytokines, and stress signals, as well as integrin-mediated cell adhesion (Lev et al., 1995; Schlaepfer et al., 1999).) j" h% f: @" j# ]# m3 `: w

Pyk2 is highly expressed in osteoclasts, where it is primarily confined to podosomes (Duong et al., 1998; Williams and Ridley, 2000; Pfaff and Jurdic, 2001). Podosomes are highly dynamic, actin-rich structures that mediate cell attachment and migration of highly motile cells such as macrophages and osteoclasts. They are composed of a central actin-bundle core surrounded by integrins and integrin-associated adhesion molecules (Linder and Aepfelbacher, 2003). When plated on glass, mature osteoclasts organize their podosomes at the periphery of the cell in a large belt-like structure. The podosome belt is similar to the sealing zone, another podosome-containing structure that is formed in active bone-resorbing osteoclasts (Luxenburg et al., 2007). Both structures share the same molecular components and are stabilized by microtubules (Destaing et al., 2003, 2005). Reduction of Pyk2 expression in osteoclasts by adenovirus containing Pyk2 antisense RNA leads to impairment in integrin-mediated cytoskeletal organization and bone resorption (Duong et al., 2001). In addition, macrophages from Pyk2–/– mice failed to become polarized and to migrate in response to chemokine stimulation in vitro and in vivo (Okigaki et al., 2003). It has been proposed that a ternary Pyk2-Src-Cbl complex induced by integrin engagement plays an important role in the control of osteoclast migration and bone resorption (Sanjay et al., 2001; Miyazaki et al., 2004). However, it is not clear how signaling via Pyk2 is linked to changes in the osteoclast cytoskeleton, and in particular to podosome assembly and organization, processes required for bone resorption.( A. t* Q, Y5 m9 z" P* P; |6 a& D" U

# l8 j2 P/ V9 U+ THere, we report that Pyk2 deficiency in mice leads to an osteopetrotic phenotype. Osteoclasts from Pyk2–/– mice are defective in cell polarization, fail to form proper sealing zones, and inefficiently resorb dentin in vitro. Furthermore, Pyk2-null osteoclasts fail to form a podosome belt that is typically seen at the periphery of wild-type osteoclasts. We also demonstrate that Rho activity is increased and the cellular distribution and stability of microtubules are compromised in Pyk2-null osteoclasts. Ecic expression of wild-type or Pyk2 mutants in Pyk2-null osteoclasts demonstrates that the FAT domain of Pyk2 plays a primary role in the control of podosome belt and sealing zone formation, as well as in bone resorption. These experiments show that Pyk2, by controlling Rho activity, regulates microtubule-dependent podosome organization in osteoclasts and thereby bone resorption.

  r' j2 s  f' `3 l% ^+ vWe have previously described the generation of Pyk2–/– mice and demonstrated that Pyk2 deficiency results in impairment in multiple macrophage functions (Okigaki et al., 2003). Because Pyk2 is abundantly expressed in osteoclasts, we have examined the possibility of whether deficiency in Pyk2 may result in bone abnormalities. Immunoblotting of osteoclast lysates with anti-Pyk2 antibodies revealed the presence of both the ubiquitous (110 kD) and hemaoietic (106 kD) Pyk2 isoforms, which have been shown to be generated by alternative RNA splicing (Dikic et al., 1998) (Fig. 1 A). Histological and histomorphometric comparison showed that the size and shape of bones from Pyk2–/– mice are normal. The length and width of the femur at the metaphyseal mid-point of either 2- or 10-wk-old mice were similar, and no changes were detected in the proliferative or hypertrophic zones of growth plates (unpublished data). However, the density of bones of either 2- or 10-wk-old Pyk2–/– mice was substantially elevated throughout the skeleton as shown by X-ray analysis and by histology (Fig. 1, B and C). Histomorphometric analysis demonstrated higher trabecular bone volume in Pyk2–/– mice (Fig. 1 D). The increase in trabecular bone volume is largely due to increased trabecular number (Fig. 1 E) and to a lesser extent to increased trabecular thickness, more evident in 10-wk-old Pyk2–/– mice (Fig. 1 F), whereas trabecular spacing was reduced at both time points (Fig. 1 G).

Although trabecular bone volume was high, the percentage of trabecular bone surface covered by osteoclasts (osteoclast surface) was substantially elevated in Pyk2–/– mice, by 60% in 2-wk-old mice, and by nearly 300% in 10-wk-old mice (Fig. 1 H). Elevated osteoclast surface in the presence of high trabecular bone volume suggests a defect in osteoclast function, as shown in several osteopetrotic mutants (Soriano et al., 1991; McHugh et al., 2000; Hollberg et al., 2002). Gain of trabecular bone volume may also result from high bone formation caused by changes in osteoblast differentiation or function. A mildly elevated osteoblast surface (percentage of trabecular bone covered by osteoblasts) was detected in 2-wk-old Pyk2–/– mice, but both osteoblast surface and bone formation rates (determined by measuring incorporation of calcium-binding fluorochromes) were normal in 10-wk-old mice (Fig. 1, I and J, respectively), while their trabecular bone volume continued to increase. Although at this time we cannot completely rule out a minor effect of Pyk2 deficiency on osteoblast function, our results strongly support the notion that impairment in osteoclast function is the primary cause of the bone phenotype of Pyk2–/– mice. Indeed, and strongly supporting this conclusion, abundant cartilage remnants were detected in the trabeculae of 10-wk-old Pyk2–/– mice (Fig. 1 K). This may result from defective resorption of the growth plate cartilage, and is an important hallmark of osteopetrosis (Walker, 1975; Helfrich et al., 1991).* ?# N+ B# [3 c' c$ m  }- n4 D

After 48 h, the area, depth, and volume of the pits were compared using three-dimensional scanning confocal microscopy. The volume of dentin excavated by Pyk2-null osteoclasts was significantly reduced (Fig. 2 A). The decrease in pit volume resulted from a decrease in both area and depth; the pits formed by Pyk2-null osteoclasts were more shallow (Fig. 2, A and B). Thus, in the absence of Pyk2, osteoclasts show a cell-autonomous decrease in bone-resorbing activity.

$ i: h( E3 N( ^' R/ E/ S$ FTo gain further insight into the mechanism underlying the reduced resorption by Pyk2-null osteoclasts, we compared the distribution and status of cytoskeletal proteins in osteoclasts from wild-type or Pyk2–/– mice. Immunofluorescence microscopy of osteoclasts plated on dentin and stained with fluorescently labeled phalloidin demonstrated that Pyk2-null osteoclasts formed an abnormal, thinner and smaller sealing zone (Fig. 2 C). Furthermore, immunofluorescent labeling of osteoclasts plated on glass demonstrated that in wild-type osteoclasts, F-actin was primarily localized in a podosome belt at the periphery of the cells, whereas in osteoclasts from Pyk2–/– mice, actin was organized in podosome clusters and multiple small rings throughout the cell (Fig. 2, D and E). Cellular localization of actin, cortactin, vinculin, and paxillin in podosomes using fluorescence microscopy have demonstrated that their distribution is similar in wild-type and Pyk2-null podosomes (Fig. 2 F and Fig. S1, available at http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/full/jcb.200701148/DC1). These experiments show that in absence of Pyk2, podosomes fail to organize in a belt-like structure at the periphery of the cell. The defect in organization of podosomes also correlates with the presence of abnormal sealing zones in Pyk2-null osteoclasts, which may explain the shallower resorption cavities formed by Pyk2-null osteoclasts in vitro., M8 _; L8 ~  E

To further determine whether the defect in Pyk2-null osteoclasts is cell autonomous, we co-cultured different combinations of wild-type or Pyk2-null bone marrow cells and calvarial osteoblasts, allowing marrow-derived osteoclast precursor cells to differentiate into osteoclasts (Takahashi et al., 1988). As shown in Fig. 3, absence of podosome belt, revealed by both F-actin and vinculin staining, was detected in osteoclasts derived from Pyk2–/– marrow whether in the presence of wild-type or Pyk2-null osteoblasts (Fig. 3 A). The number of osteoclasts generated from Pyk2–/– bone marrow was not significantly different from wild-type, regardless of the origin of the supporting osteoblasts (Fig. 3 B). Collectively, these results demonstrate that osteoclast differentiation is unaffected by the absence of Pyk2, and that the functional defect in Pyk2-null osteoclasts is cell autonomous.

4 U' n" S3 V' K# EThe dynamic nature of GFP-labeled actin that was expressed in osteoclasts from wild-type or Pyk2–/– mice was compared by fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) measurements (Axelrod et al., 1976). Characteristic photobleaching recovery time of GFP-actin in wild-type osteoclasts was 30 s, as described previously (Destaing et al., 2003). In contrast, the photobleaching recovery time of GFP-actin in Pyk2-null osteoclasts was doubled (Fig. 4 A), indicating that the rate of actin flux in podosomes is reduced in the absence of Pyk2. The molecular mechanisms underlying the observed differences in FRAP measurements is currently unknown. Notwithstanding the decreased rate of actin flux in individual podosomes, the total podosome life-span (namely, the average time from the first appearance of a new podosome to its dissociation) in osteoclasts expressing GFP-actin was not significantly different (Fig. 4 B). Overall, these results suggest that in osteoclasts, Pyk2 contributes to the dynamic exchange of actin in podosomes, but not to podosome life span. The podosome organization defects in Pyk2-null osteoclasts, which prevent podosome belt formation, are unlikely to be caused by a change in podosome life span in these cells.

Microtubule stability and acetylation are altered in osteoclasts from Pyk2–/– mice

Previous analyses have shown that the process of podosome patterning is controlled by the microtubule network in osteoclasts (Destaing et al., 2003). During podosome differentiation, podosomes initially organize into clusters that evolve into unstable small podosome rings by a mechanism of self-organization. Subsequently, the small rings fuse and expand by an oriented treadmilling process toward the periphery of the cell to form belts. Thus, the pattern of podosomes in Pyk2-null osteoclasts resembles earlier stages of osteoclast differentiation, when podosomes are organized in clusters and small, dynamic podosome rings. It was demonstrated that the transition of clusters/rings to peripheral podosome belt requires an intact microtubule network (Destaing et al., 2003). We therefore analyzed microtubule distribution and found that Pyk2-null osteoclasts lacked the characteristic circular microtubule network that is concentrated around the podosome belt in normal cells (Turksen et al., 1988; Destaing et al., 2003), while maintaining the radial network of microtubules (Fig. 5 A)."

Cellular microtubules are composed of two distinct pools with regard to their stability: a short-lived pool with a half-life of 5–10 min and a more stable pool that may last for as long as several hours. The stable microtubule pool is resistant to treatment with the microtubule-depolymerizing agent nocodazole and contributes to podosome belt stabilization in osteoclasts (Westermann and Weber, 2003; Destaing et al., 2005). As expected, wild-type osteoclasts contained a nocodazole-resistant pool of stable microtubules. In contrast, very few nocodazole-resistant microtubules were seen in Pyk2-null osteoclasts, demonstrating that the short-lived, rather than the stable pool, is the predominant form of microtubules in cells lacking Pyk2 (Fig. 5 B). Because the stable pool of microtubules that accumulates during osteoclastogenesis is highly acetylated (Destaing et al., 2005), we next analyzed microtubule acetylation by immunofluorescence microscopy of permeabilized cells labeled with antibodies specific for the acetylated form of tubulin. This experiment showed that microtubule acetylation is reduced in Pyk2-null osteoclasts (Fig. 5 C). A similar conclusion was drawn by immunoblotting experiments demonstrating that acetylation of microtubules is, indeed, compromised in Pyk2–/– osteoclasts (Fig. 5 D). The reduced acetylation of microtubules in Pyk2-null osteoclasts is consistent with their reduced stability, as revealed by nocodazole treatment. It was shown that microtubule acetylation is regulated by the mDia2-HDAC6 complex in osteoclasts (Destaing et al., 2005). However, analyses of mDia2 localization in wild-type and Pyk2-null osteoclasts using fluorescence microscopy revealed similar cellular distribution (Fig. S4, available at http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/full/jcb.200701148/DC1).

4 e$ m, r& D) l5 m. @The small GTPase Rho has been implicated in the stabilization and post-translational modification of microtubules (Palazzo et al., 2004). In addition, Rho inhibition leads to enhancement in the acetylation and stabilization of the microtubule network in osteoclasts (Destaing et al., 2005). To examine the possibility of whether the reduced stability and acetylation of microtubules in Pyk2-null osteoclasts are caused by increased Rho activation, Rho activity was determined by using a GST fusion protein containing the Rho binding domain of Rhotekin (RBD) to pull down the active, GTP-bound form of Rho (Ren et al., 1999). The results showed increased Rho activity in Pyk2-null cells (Fig. 6 A). The potential role of Rho activation was further tested by examining the effect of the Rho inhibitor C3-toxin on the stability of microtubules, and on podosome belt formation. The experiment presented in Fig. 6 B shows that C3-toxin treatment increased the stable pool of microtubules and induced the formation of a belt-like structure at the cell periphery of Pyk2-null osteoclasts. The stable pool of microtubules observed in Pyk2-null osteoclasts after treatment with C3 was also highly acetylated (Fig. 6 C). These results further indicate that enhanced Rho activity in Pyk2-null osteoclasts is responsible for the decrease in microtubule stability and acetylation, and impairment of podosome belt formation.

It was previously proposed that recruitment of Src by Pyk2 plays an important role in podosome belt formation and bone resorption in osteoclasts (Lakkakorpi et al., 2003; Miyazaki et al., 2004). Examination of the expression and activity of Src in wild-type and Pyk2-null osteoclasts revealed that, although the expression of Src was not altered in the absence of Pyk2 (Fig. 7 A), Src activity was reduced in both unstimulated and integrin-stimulated Pyk2-null osteoclasts (Fig. 7 B). However, podosome belt formation was not rescued in Pyk2-null osteoclasts that were microinjected with expression vector for activated Src (Src-Y527F) (Fig. 7 C), suggesting that the Pyk2-dependent pathway leading to microtubule-dependent podosome belt and sealing zone formation in osteoclasts is, by and large, a Src-independent process.

We next examined the ability of the different mutants to rescue podosome belt formation in Pyk2-null osteoclasts. Expression vectors for the different mutants were microinjected into osteoclasts from Pyk2–/– mice, and the cells were stained with fluorescently labeled phalloidin and anti-Pyk2 antibodies. Microinjection of Pyk2-WT cDNA completely rescued podosome belt formation in Pyk2-null osteoclasts (Fig. 8 B), providing further evidence that Pyk2 is required for the formation of the peripheral podosome belt in osteoclasts. Similar results were observed when Pyk2-null osteoclasts were microinjected with Pyk2-FERM, Pyk2-Y402F, or Pyk2-K457A cDNAs (Fig. 8, D–F). In contrast, podosome belt formation was not observed in Pyk2-null osteoclasts that were microinjected with Pyk2-FAT. Instead, podosome clusters and small rings were seen throughout the microinjected osteoclasts (Fig. 8 C). Examination of the cellular distribution of ecically expressed Pyk2 molecules showed, however, that both wild-type and all mutant Pyk2 were confined to actin-containing podosomes, including the Pyk2-FAT mutant (Fig. S3, available at http://www.jcb.org/cgi/content/full/jcb.200701148/DC1)., @" Y1 f# w" g' w9 n

Similar results were obtained when Pyk2-null osteoclasts were infected with adenovirus containing wild-type Pyk2 or the different Pyk2 mutants, and matched for expression levels of endogenous Pyk2 (Fig. 8 G). Comparison of the infected cells demonstrated that only Pyk2-FAT failed to induce belt formation in comparison to belt formation induced by wild-type Pyk2 (Fig. 8 H). In agreement with that, expression of Pyk2-FAT was not able to either restore Rho activation or stabilization of microtubules, as demonstrated by a nocodazole-resistance assay (Fig. 9, A and B, respectively). The lack of a podosome belt in Pyk2-null osteoclasts infected with the Pyk2-FAT virus correlated with the absence of sealing zone in these cells after replating on dentin, as shown in Fig. 10 A.9 h/ e1 e4 q4 C' G9 r  ]

The effect of Pyk2 mutants on osteoclast function was then examined in a resorption assay. Expression of Pyk2-FERM in Pyk2-null osteoclasts completely rescued their bone-resorbing activity. On the other hand, the bone-resorbing activity was only partially restored by the Pyk2-Y402F and Pyk2-K457A mutants, notwithstanding the complete restoration of podosome belt formation by these mutants (Fig. 10). The area, depth, and volume of pits formed by Pyk2-null osteoclasts that were infected with Pyk2-FAT virus were significantly reduced (Fig. 10, B–D), further confirming the importance of the FAT domain in promoting osteoclast function. These results suggest that although Src recruitment and Pyk2 kinase activity contribute to bone resorption, the FAT domain of Pyk2 plays a major role in podosome organization and bone resorption.

Discussion# ^" p$ i8 `7 E, S

( u0 @9 b. G8 g/ o' U4 J% l5 wWe have previously reported that Pyk2 deficiency results in impairment of macrophage function (Okigaki et al., 2003). Here, we report that Pyk2 deficiency also leads to osteopetrotic phenotype by impairment in the bone-resorbing activity of osteoclasts. In addition, experiments are presented demonstrating that Rho activity, microtubule stabilization and podosome organization are altered in Pyk2-null osteoclasts. Although we cannot exclude the contribution of osteoblasts to the increased bone mass, the accumulation of cartilage remnants despite elevated osteoclast numbers confirm in vivo an impairment in osteoclast function. Furthermore, the in vitro experiments establish the fact that Pyk2-null osteoclasts are deficient in cytoskeletal organization and bone resorption, in a cell-autonomous manner. Thus, Pyk2 plays a critical role in podosome organization and osteoclast function.

Analysis of the cellular distribution of Pyk2 by immunofluorescence microscopy showed that Pyk2 is preferentially localized in the periphery of osteoclasts in a region that overlaps with the podosome belt, when the cells are plated on glass, or the similar sealing zone, when plated on mineralized bone. Comparison of the cellular distribution of actin revealed that Pyk2 deficiency results in impairment in the formation of podosome belt and sealing zone in osteoclasts. Instead, Pyk2-null osteoclasts contain multiple podosome clusters and small podosome rings throughout the cell.

Given that a link has been established between microtubules and actin organization (Waterman-Storer and Salmon, 1999), we have explored the possibility of whether microtubule distribution and/or dynamics were altered in osteoclasts deficient in Pyk2. Immunofluorescence studies showed that the cellular distribution of microtubules is significantly altered in Pyk2-null osteoclasts; while Pyk2-null osteoclasts retained the radial network, they lost their circular microtubule network that is usually seen at the periphery of osteoclasts. The stable, nocodazole-resistant pool of microtubules that has previously been implicated in mediating the transition from podosome clusters and rings into the peripheral podosome belt (Destaing et al., 2003), was nearly eliminated in Pyk2-null osteoclasts. Consistent with this finding, the acetylation of microtubules, which correlates with microtubule stabilization, was also markedly reduced in Pyk2-null osteoclasts. Microtubule acetylation is controlled in part by the activity of histone and microtubule deacetylase HDAC6, which in turn is regulated by the small GTPase Rho (Destaing et al., 2005). We found that Pyk2 deficiency results in increased Rho activity, and established that this leads to reduced microtubule acetylation and reduced microtubule stability. We propose that Pyk2 may function as an upstream inhibitor of this signaling pathway in osteoclasts, which ultimately allows the transition of podosomes from the center of the cells, where they form clusters and small internal podosome rings, to the periphery, where they form a podosome belt and sealing zone, a structure necessary for efficient bone resorption.+ L5 m& l# G7 u" k4 H5 k5 U. G

2 s" K" ~! B/ WDuring directional migration of fibroblasts, the stable pool of microtubules becomes oriented toward the leading edge of the cell (Gundersen and Bulinski, 1988). Moreover, the microtubules of fibroblasts are post-translationally modified, and as in osteoclasts, the modifications are associated with enhanced microtubule stability (Westermann and Weber, 2003). In addition, FAK activation in the leading edge of fibroblasts leads to enhanced Rho activity and microtubule stability (Palazzo et al., 2004). In osteoclasts, on the other hand, enhanced stimulation of microtubule stability and podosome organization are controlled by Pyk2-mediated reduced Rho activation. Although the reason for this difference is unknown, this could be explained by different effects of Pyk2 and FAK on Rho activation, or, as suggested before (Destaing et al., 2005), could be due to cell type–specific effects of Rho inhibition on microtubule stability./ w6 N+ u! u2 @  }

Ecic expression of wild-type Pyk2 in Pyk2-null osteoclasts, at levels comparable to endogenous expression of the protein in wild-type cells, rescued the formation of a podosome belt and sealing zone as well as bone resorption. The cellular responses were also rescued by expression of a deletion mutant of Pyk2 lacking the FERM domain. Podosome belt formation was rescued by expression of a kinase-negative Pyk2 mutant (K457A) and by a point mutant in a tyrosine phosphorylation site (Y402F) that is responsible for mediating complex formation with Src. In contrast, a deletion mutant devoid of the FAT domain was not able to rescue normal responses in Pyk2-null osteoclasts, emphasizing the importance of this domain in the regulation of microtubule stability and podosome organization in these cells.

! I1 U& ~0 {6 [/ w) ^. V  h/ K; }It was previously shown that the FAT domain is responsible for Pyk2 localization in focal contacts of fibroblasts and HeLa cells (Schaller and Sasaki, 1997; Xiong et al., 1998; Litvak et al., 2000). However, a deletion mutant of Pyk2 devoid of the FAT domain remains localized around the actin-rich podosome core in Pyk2-null osteoclasts, suggesting that the inability of mutant protein to rescue podosome belt or sealing zone formation and bone resorption are not caused by a defect in cellular distribution. The FAT domain of Pyk2 may participate in podosome belt formation by regulating the activities of guanine nucleotide exchange factors or GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) that regulate Rho activity, resulting in the control of acetylation and stabilization of microtubules in the pathways mentioned earlier in the Discussion, thereby regulating osteoclast cytoskeletal organization and bone resorption.

The rescue of Pyk2-dependent podosome belt formation in Pyk2-null osteoclasts by the kinase-negative Pyk2 mutant suggests that Pyk2 may function as a platform for recruitment and assembly of signaling proteins in addition to its function as tyrosine kinase. Accordingly, other tyrosine kinases may compensate for the loss of intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity of Pyk2 by trans-phosphorylation of key tyrosine residues that function as docking sites for signaling proteins. Pyk2 may also recruit signaling proteins in a phosphorylation-independent manner through interactions mediated by its proline-rich region with SH3 domain–containing signaling proteins.

" Q8 p+ t: J! I, h' l7 M7 OThe effect of overexpression of Pyk2-Y402F in wild-type osteoclasts was previously described (Lakkakorpi et al., 2003; Miyazaki et al., 2004), demonstrating that osteoclasts that overexpress this mutant fail to form podosome belt and show reduced bone resorption in vitro. Consistently, as demonstrated in our paper, in the absence of endogenous Pyk2, Pyk2-Y402F can partially restore bone resorption, but completely restores the formation of a peripheral podosome belt. This, together with the finding that microinjection of Src-Y527F into Pyk2-null osteoclasts cannot rescue podosome belt formation, suggests that Pyk2 may mediate two separate pathways: a Rho-dependent pathway that regulates microtubule-dependent podosome organization, and a Src-dependent pathway that may be involved in other functions related to bone resorption, such as actin dynamics, cell attachment, or ruffled border formation.
" u! d* Z: p; K/ q
$ G& R7 h. C8 ]& S+ i! bWe also show that actin dynamics are altered in the absence of Pyk2; the rate of incorporation of GFP-actin into podosomes in photobleached areas is slowed down by an approximately twofold in the absence of Pyk2. Previous reports have interpreted slower actin fluxes as an indication of reduced actin polymerization (Destaing et al., 2003), which could result from the inhibition of actin polymerizing proteins or from enhanced actin severing along the filaments. The role of actin polymerization in podosome formation and function is still poorly understood, but it has been suggested that polymerization induces a force that pushes the cell membrane toward the substrate (Prass et al., 2006; Footer et al., 2007), a process that may also be essential for attachment of osteoclasts to their substrate and therefore to bone resorption.

Finally, the ruffled border is a membrane-rich organelle that is surrounded by the sealing zone, and through which protons and proteolytic enzymes are secreted to resorb the bone matrix. We have observed in Pyk2-null osteoclasts a shorter and irregular ruffled border structure and defective translocation of the proton pump to this region in Pyk2-null osteoclasts (unpublished data). This may explain the shallow pits formed by Pyk2-null osteoclasts, and may suggest additional, yet unknown roles of Pyk2 in osteoclast function and bone resorption.. h- |9 T+ [4 B! l

In conclusion, this study demonstrates that Pyk2 is required for normal organization of the cytoskeleton in osteoclasts, and bone resorption. In the absence of Pyk2, Rho activity is increased, microtubule acetylation and stabilization are decreased, and transition of podosomes to the periphery of the cell is prevented.
