The conserved Pelado/ZSWIM8 protein regulates actin dynamics by promoting linear actin filament polymerization
2022-02-05
Abstract excerpt
Actin filament polymerization can be branched or linear, which depends on the associated regulatory proteins. Competition for Actin monomers occurs between proteins that induce branched or linear actin polymerization. Cell specialization requires the regulation of actin filaments to allow the formation of cell-type specific structures, like cuticular hairs in Drosophila , formed by linear actin filaments. Here, w...
