Actin monomer binding proteins

H Q Sun et al. Curr Opin Cell Biol. 1995 Feb.

Abstract

Small actin monomer binding proteins are essential components of the actin polymerization machinery. Originally thought of as passive buffers that prevent polymerization of actin monomers, recent discoveries elucidate how some actin monomer binding proteins can promote as well as inhibit polymerization, and how they cooperate to regulate actin assembly.
