Abstract excerpt
The nucleotide state of actin (ATP, ADP-P(i), or ADP) is known to impact its interactions with other actin molecules upon polymerization as well as with multiple actin binding proteins both in the monomeric and filamentous states of actin. Recently, molecular dynamics simulations predicted that a sequence located at the interface of subdomains 1 and 3 (W-loop; residues 165-172) changes from an unstructured loop...
