Romet-Lemonne/Jegou Lab – Regulation of branched versus linear Arp2/3-generated actin filaments

Home publis, News21 March 2023
The Romet-Lemonne/Jegou's Team has just published a new paper in the EMBO Journal. Regulation of branched versus linear Arp2/3-generated actin filaments Abstract Activation of the Arp2/3 complex by VCA-motif-bearing actin nucleation-promoting factors results in the formation of “daughter” actin filaments branching off the sides of pre-existing “mother” filaments. Alternatively, when stimulated by SPIN90, Arp2/3 directly nucleates “linear”…
