Researchers at Kanazawa University report in eLife on deciphering the actin structure-dependent preferential cooperative binding of cofilin. The actin filament is a double-stranded helical structure ...
Actin proteins assemble into thin, helical filaments that form a network throughout all eukaryotic cells. These filaments play a significant role in cell structure, movement, division, and more. This ...
The discovery opens the door to healthier aging in humans. The cytoskeleton provides most cells with their shape, structure, and internal organization. In turn, the cytoskeleton relies on a type of ...
