  • Title: Rheological studies on calcium-sensitive gelation of actin filaments by actinogelin.
    Author: Maruyama K, Mimura N, Asano A.
    Journal: J Biochem; 1981 Jan; 89(1):317-9. PubMed ID: 6894296.
    Abstract:
    Actinogelin, a regulatory protein of cell motility, enhanced gelation of actin filaments in the absence of calcium ions, only on standing still or with very low velocity gradients ( less than 0.1 s-1). The Ca2+-sensitive action of actinogelin on action filaments was dependent on a weak external force. In the presence of a micromolar level of Ca2+, actinogelin did not affect the network formation of actin filaments at all.
