Abstract excerpt
Actin-related proteins (Arps), which share a basal structure with actin but have distinct functions, have been found in a wide variety of organisms. While their functions are not yet clear, some Arps are localized in the nucleus and are suggested to contribute to the regulation of transcription. An essential gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Act3p/Arp4, encodes the first identified nuclear Arp, which has been...
