Abstract excerpt
Of the actin-related proteins, Arp1 is the most similar to conventional actin, and functions solely as a component of the multisubunit complex dynactin. Dynactin has been identified as an activator of the microtubule-associated motor cytoplasmic dynein. The role of Arp1 within dynactin is two-fold: (1) it serves as a structural scaffold protein for other dynactin subunits; and (2) it has been proposed to link...
