Cooperation of two actin-binding proteins, cofilin and Aip1, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Cofilin is a low-molecular weight actin-modulating protein, and is structurally and functionally conserved among eukaryotes. Cofilin is encoded by COF1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and is essential for cell viability. Cofilin binds to and severs actin filaments in vitro, and also enhances their depolymerization. A partner protein that cooperates with cofilin in vivo has not been identified. RESULTS:...
