▪ Abstract Ubiquitous among eukaryotes, the ADF/cofilins are essential proteins responsible
for the high turnover rates of actin filaments in vivo. In vertebrates, ADF and cofilin are …

The ADF/cofilins are a family of actin-binding proteins expressed in all eukaryotic cells so far
examined. Members of this family remodel the actin cytoskeleton, for example during …

The actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilins are a family of essential actin regulatory
proteins, ubiquitous among eukaryotes, that enhance the turnover of actin by regulating the …

The actin cytoskeleton is one of the major structural components of the cell. It often
undergoes rapid reorganization and plays crucial roles in a number of dynamic cellular …

Actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilins are essential regulators of actin filament turnover.
Several ADF/cofilin isoforms are found in multicellular organisms, but their biological …

Cyclase-associated proteins (CAPs) are highly conserved actin monomer binding proteins
present in all eukaryotes. However, the mechanism by which CAPs contribute to actin …

Tropomyosin binds to actin filaments and is implicated in stabilization of actin cytoskeleton.
We examined biochemical and cell biological properties of Caenorhabditis elegans …

Actin depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin enhances turnover of actin filaments by severing
and depolymerizing filaments. A number of proteins functionally interact with ADF/cofilin to …

A large number of cellular processes, including cytokinesis, endocytosis, chemotaxis, or
neurite outgrowth, is mediated by polymerization of actin filaments. In response to …

This is the second in a series of canonical reviews on invertebrate muscle. We cover here
thin and thick filament structure, the molecular basis of force generation and its regulation …
