N-cofilin can compensate for the loss of ADF in excitatory synapses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Actin plays important roles in a number of synaptic processes, including synaptic vesicle organization and exocytosis, mobility of postsynaptic receptors, and synaptic plasticity.

Nature Communications, 2020 Remodelling of the actin cytoskeleton occurs during plant immune responses to pathogens. Here Lu et al. show that this process requires the calcium-dependent kinase CPK3 which phosphorylates actin depolymerizing factor 4 and is required for both PAMP and

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Neospora caninum is a member of Apicomplexa Phylum and the causative agent of neosporosis, a disease responsible for abortions in cattle. Apicomplexan parasites have a limited set of actin-binding proteins conducting the regulation of the dynamics of ...

Distribution and cellular localization of actin depolymerizing factor. [PDF]
The Journal of cell biology, 1987 Actin depolymerizing factor (ADF) is a low molecular mass (19 kD) protein that forms a tightly bound dimeric complex with actin. We have raised a rabbit antiserum to chick brain ADF and used it to analyze the distribution and cellular localization of ADF.

Cells, 2023 Actin dynamics are known to orchestrate various myogenic processes in progenitor cells. Twinfilin-1 (TWF1) is an actin-depolymerizing factor that plays a crucial role in the differentiation of myogenic progenitor cells. However, little is known about the

Increase in Neurite Outgrowth Mediated by Overexpression of Actin Depolymerizing Factor [PDF]
The Journal of Neuroscience, 2000 Growth cone motility is regulated by changes in actin dynamics. Actin depolymerizing factor (ADF) is an important regulator of actin dynamics, and extracellular signal-induced changes in ADF activity may influence growth cone motility and neurite extension. To determine this directly, we overexpressed ADF in primary neurons and analyzed neurite lengths.

Functional proteomic analysis of Ankaferd® Blood Stopper
Turkish Journal of Hematology, 2010 OBJECTIVE: Ankaferd® Blood Stopper (ABS) comprises a standardized mixture of the plants Thymus vulgaris, Glycyrrhiza glabra, Vitis vinifera, Alpinia officinarum, and Urtica dioica. The basic mechanism of action for ABS is the formation of an encapsulated

Regulation of the Pollen-Specific Actin-Depolymerizing Factor LlADF1
The Plant Cell, 2002 Pollen tube growth is dependent on a dynamic actin cytoskeleton, suggesting that actin-regulating proteins are involved. We have examined the regulation of the lily pollen-specific actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF) LlADF1. Its actin binding and depolymerizing activity is pH sensitive, inhibited by certain phosphoinositides, but not controlled by ...

Structure of the actin-depolymerizing factor homology domain in complex with actin [PDF]
The Journal of Cell Biology, 2008 Actin dynamics provide the driving force for many cellular processes including motility and endocytosis. Among the central cytoskeletal regulators are actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin, which depolymerizes actin filaments, and twinfilin, which sequesters actin monomers and caps filament barbed ends.
