Mitochondrial translocation of cofilin is an early step in apoptosis induction.

Abstract excerpt

Increasing evidence suggests that movement of key proteins in or out of mitochondria during apoptosis is essential for the regulation of apoptosis. Here, we report identification of the actin-binding protein cofilin by a proteomic approach, as such a factor translocated from cytosol into mitochondria after induction of apoptosis. We found that after induction of apoptosis, cofilin was translocated to mitochondria...
