F1000Research, 2016 Higher vertebrates express six different highly conserved actin isoforms that can be classified in three subgroups: 1) sarcomeric actins, α-skeletal (α-SKA) and α-cardiac (α-CAA), 2) smooth muscle actins (SMAs), α-SMA and γ-SMA, and 3) cytoplasmic actins

The actinome of Dictyostelium discoideum in comparison to actins and actin-related proteins from other organisms. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2008 Actin belongs to the most abundant proteins in eukaryotic cells which harbor usually many conventional actin isoforms as well as actin-related proteins (Arps).

Computational prediction of actin–actin interaction [PDF]
Molecular Biology Reports, 2013 Actin is one of the most abundant proteins in eukaryotic cells, where it plays key roles in cell shape, motility, and regulation. Actin is found in globular (G) and filamentous (F) structure in the cell. The helix of actin occurs as a result of polymerization of monomeric G-actin molecules through sequential rowing, is called F-actin.

Actin isoforms and neoplastic transformation
Успехи молекулярной онкологии, 2017 The cytoplasmic actins (β and γ) play crucial roles during key cellular processes like adhesion, migration, polarization and cytokinesis. The understanding of their specific underlying mechanisms would be of major relevance not only for fundamental ...

Relative importance of βcyto- and γcyto-actin in primary mouse embryonic fibroblasts [PDF]
, 2017 The highly homologous β (βcyto) and γ (γcyto) cytoplasmic actins are hypothesized to carry out both redundant and unique essential functions, but studies using targeted gene knockout and siRNA-mediated transcript knockdown to examine βcyto- and γcyto ...

Stability domains of actin genes and genomic evolution
, 2007 In eukaryotic genes the protein coding sequence is split into several fragments, the exons, separated by non-coding DNA stretches, the introns. Prokaryotes do not have introns in their genome.
