Inter-subunit interactions drive divergent dynamics in mammalian and Plasmodium actin filaments.

Inter-subunit interactions drive divergent dynamics in mammalian and Plasmodium actin filaments.

Cell motility is essential for protozoan and metazoan organisms and typically relies on the dynamic turnover of actin filaments. In metazoans, monomeric actin polymerises into usually long and stable filaments, while some protozoans form only short and highly dynamic actin filaments. These different...
