Abstract excerpt
Within the superfamily of "EF-hand Ca2+-modulated proteins," centrins constitute a family of cytoskeletal proteins that are highly conserved from lower eukaryotes to man. Their cytoskeletal specialization is manifest in their capacity to form filamentous contractile arrays of various shapes and f...
