Mechanism of synergistic actin filament pointed end depolymerization by cyclase-associated protein and cofilin
The cofilin family proteins are actin disassembly factors but the disassembly mechanism is poorly understood. Here authors show that cyclase-associated-protein (CAP) works in synergy with cofilin to accelerate actin filament depolymerization by nearly 100-fold and reveal how CAP destabilizes the int...

description | The cofilin family proteins are actin disassembly factors but the disassembly mechanism is poorly understood. Here authors show that cyclase-associated-protein (CAP) works in synergy with cofilin to accelerate actin filament depolymerization by nearly 100-fold and reveal how CAP destabilizes the interface between terminal actin subunits. |
