Yeast Aim21 is recruited by the SH3-containing proteins Bbc1 and Abp1 to patches and, with Tda2, reduces barbed end assembly to balance the distribution of actin between patches and cables. Aim21/Tda2 also interacts with Cap1/Cap2, revealing a complex interplay between actin assembly regulators.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
