Actin and actin‐binding proteins in yeast

Cell Motility, 1990
Recently it has been shown that the amoeboid form of Dictyosteliurn discoideurn can chemotax in the absence of either myosin, a-actinin or severin without immediately obvious defects [reviewed by Bray and Vasiliev, 19891. These observations lead one to wonder what contractile proteins do in nonmuscle cells.

Actin isoforms

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1993
The actin supergene family encodes a number of structurally related, but perhaps functionally distinct, protein isoforms that regulate contractile potential in muscle tissues and help to control the shape as well as the motility of non-muscle cells.

Birefringence of actin

Biopolymers, 1991
AbstractThe total strain birefringence of F‐actin isolated from chicken gizzards was measured as a function of elongation in thin transparent films. Each film held at a certain elongation in a jig was allowed to swell in a penetrating but nondissolving liquid. Seven liquids with different refractive indices were employed.

Actinic Prurigo

Dermatologic Clinics, 2014
Actinic prurigo is a chronic photodermatosis with onset in childhood or before 20 years of age. It is most prevalent in Amerindians and Latin American mestizos, although it has been reported worldwide. Patients present with photodistributed, erythematous excoriated papules, cheilitis, and conjunctivitis. There is strong association with human leukocyte

Isolation of Actin and Actin-Binding Proteins

2016
Actin-binding proteins mediate and regulate the dynamics of actin and the organization of highly ordered structures of F-actin. Villin is generally expressed in plant cells and is associated with G-actin or F-actin dependent on Ca2+ concentrations. Using a DNase I affinity column chromatography approach, the villin and the G-actin can be isolated from ...

Actinic Injury

Annual Review of Medicine, 1990
Sun exposure has multiple well-documented acute and chronic effects of substantial medical importance. The most extensively studied of these are the effects on the skin. Acute effects include sunburn, phototoxic and photoallergic reactions, altered immunoreactivity, and a variety of photosensitivity disorders.

Actinic prurigo

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1981
Actinic prurigo is a chronic photodermatitis found predominantly in North American Indians. Other terms have been used to describe similar cases in Central and South America and in Europe. Relatively little has been written about this condition in the English literature, and confusion exists over whether this is a form of polymorphic light eruption ...

Actinic Reticuloid

International Journal of Dermatology, 1980
ABSTRACT: We report four cases of actinic reticuloid, including the first case ever reported in a woman. We have concluded that not all the patients are persistent light reactors and that the histologic presentation can be quite variable, in some cases extremely difficult to differentiate from a cutaneous lymphoma. Phototesting studies incriminate the

Actinic folliculitis

Clinical and Experimental Dermatology, 2005
We report a case of actinic folliculitis in a 29-year-old woman who presented with a 10-year history of a recurrent pustular eruption affecting her face, typically appearing 4-6 h after exposure to sunlight. Actinic follicuitis is a rare photodermatosis, which falls into the same spectrum as acne aestivalis and actinic superficial folliculitis.

Structure of Actin

1991
Almost 50 years ago actin was identified [Straub, 1942] in an extract of muscle tissue where — together with myosin — it forms the contractile protein-complex, actomyosin. Straub recognized that actin appears in two forms: In the absence of salt it can exist as a globular protein, G-actin, whereas on addition of traces of salt it changes into a highly ...
