Abstract excerpt
The association of F-actin (filamentous actin) with a large number of binding proteins is essential for cellular function. Actin-binding proteins control the dynamics of actin filaments, nucleate new filaments and facilitate formation of higher-order structures such as actin bundles. The yeast gene SCP1 encodes a small protein with significant homology to mammalian SM22/transgelin. We have investigated the role...
