Abstract excerpt
The Arp2/3 complex is comprised of seven evolutionarily conserved subunits and upon activation by WASp or another nucleation promoting factor nucleates the formation of actin filaments. These events are critical for driving a wide range of cellular processes, including motility, endocytosis, and intracellular trafficking. However, an in depth understanding of the Arp2/3 complex activation and nucleation mechanism...
