AbstractHelp

This group represents an actobindin; a 9.8kDa protein from Acanthamoeba castellanii [1]. It belongs to a group of G-actin binding proteins including actobindin, twinfilin, and profilin [2]. Actobindin consists of two beta-thymosin repeats [3]. It inhibits nucleation of new actin filaments and facilitates elongation of existing polarized filaments in actively motile regions [4]. Actobindin does not form a stable complex with actin dimers but causes the accumulation of dimers that are unable to nucleate polymerisation or self-associate [5].
