Abstract excerpt
The actin binding proteins cortexillin I and II play a major role in Dictyostelium cytokinesis, in which they are found localized to the membranes of the cleavage furrow. Here we report on cortexillin I mutants isolated by gene trapping in Polysphondylium. The original mutation and reconstructed versions of the original, as well as cortexillin I deletions, are unable to form aggregation streams under starvation...
