Actin structure and function: roles in mitochondrial organization and morphogenesis in budding yeast and identification of the phalloidin-binding site.

Abstract excerpt

To further elucidate the functions of actin in budding yeast and to relate actin structure to specific roles and interactions in vivo, we determined the phenotypes caused by 13 charged-to-alanine mutations isolated previously in the single Saccharomyces cerevisiae actin gene. Defects in actin organization, morphogenesis, budding pattern, chitin deposition, septation, nuclear segregation, and mitochondrial...
