Domain biochemistry
  • a protein comprising globular subunits which aggregate to form filaments, originally identified (in association with myosin) as a component of muscle cells, and later found in almost all eukaryotic cells, being involved in cell shape, adhesion, and motility, and the motion of intracellular components
aktiin
actin
Usage examples
  • Actin and myosin have been found in dozens of other (nonmuscle) cells and are believed to be responsible for the contractile properties of animal cells generally.
Good to know
  • There are two forms, denoted by prefixed hyphenated capital letters: G-actin (‘globular’ actin) and F-actin (‘fibrous’ actin).

  • 375-st aminohappest koosnev globulaarne valk molekulmassiga 41.6 kDa, mikrofilamentide põhikomponent
  • Actin is a family of globular multi-functional proteins that form microfilaments. It is found in essentially all eukaryotic cells. An actin protein's mass is roughly 42-kDa, with a diameter of 4 to 7 nm, and it is the monomeric subunit of two types of filaments in cells: microfilaments, one of the three major components of the cytoskeleton, and thin filaments, part of the contractile apparatus in muscle cells.
