Actin Depolymerizing Factor

2000
Unlike other actin-binding proteins, actin depolymerizing factor (ADF) binds to both filamentous and globular actin, and causes the rapid depolymerization of actin filaments. ADF localizes to sites of active actin dynamics, including growing maize root hairs.

Comparative study of rice and Arabidopsis Actin-depolymerizing factors gene families

Journal of Plant Physiology, 2006
Actin-depolymerizing factors (ADF) is one of the small actin-binding proteins that regulate actin dynamics in cells. Analysis of the complete rice and Arabidopsis protein sequences revealed 12 ADF proteins, respectively. A further study on the similarities and differences between ADF throughout rice and Arabidopsis genome was carried out at the level ...

Interaction of pollen-specific actin-depolymerizing factor with actin

The Plant Journal, 2001
We have examined the interaction of recombinant lily pollen ADF, LlADF1, with actin and found that whilst it bound both G- and F-actin, it had a much smaller effect on the polymerization and depolymerization rate constants than the maize vegetative ADF, ZmADF3. An antiserum specific to pollen ADF, antipADF, was raised and used to localize pollen ADF in

Cellular Factors Mediate Cadmium-Dependent Actin Depolymerization

Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 1996
Cadmium exposure produces depolymerization of the actin cytoskeleton in several cultured cell lines, and we have previously shown that in renal mesangial cells this effect is caused by picomolar concentrations of cytosolic Cd2+. The present study was undertaken to explore further the basis of this action of Cd2+.

Actin Depolymerizing Factor Is a Component of Slow Axonal Transport

Journal of Neurochemistry, 1992
Abstract: We examined the low molecular weight proteins transported with actin in the chicken sciatic nerve after injection of [35S]methionine into the lumbar spinal cord. A prominent component of slow axonal transport with apparent molecular mass 19 kDa comigrated on two‐dimensional gels with chicken actin depolymerizing factor (ADF), previously ...
