A balance of capping protein and profilin functions is required to regulate actin polymerization in Drosophila bristle.

Molecular biology of the cell - 1 Jan 2003

Hopmann Roberta, Miller Kathryn G

Abstract excerpt

Profilin is a well-characterized protein known to be important for regulating actin filament assembly. Relatively few studies have addressed how profilin interacts with other actin-binding proteins in vivo to regulate assembly of complex actin structures. To investigate the function of profilin in the context of a differentiating cell, we have studied an instructive genetic interaction between mutations in...
