How can you use “actin” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

As a mechanosensitive scaffold that controls a large set of regulatory proteins, the actin cytoskeleton is critically poised to modulate a variety of cellular processes, including protein synthesis, cell survival, migration and proliferation [ 14 31 32 ] . One function of the cytoskeleton in gene regulation appears to be the spatial organization of transcripts and possibly their translation within the intracellular environment.
The I-band contains actin and is where mitochondria are located, but has no myosin.
One gene verified in this study, the small proline-rich protein 1A (Table 2), was characterized in detail by Bonilla et al, who show that it colocalizes with filamentous actin in membrane ruffles and augments axonal outgrowth [ 8 ] .
Because the labeling patterns for RIα and D-AKAP1 appear similar in the muscle fibers and at the postsynaptic membrane, D-AKAP1 may anchor RIα in these regions, which further supports the cloning and biochemical evidence of interaction between these proteins [ 15 28 ] . Phalloidin was used as a positive control for the actin region of muscle fibers (fig.
When the myosin activity was blocked with BDM treatment, continued actin polymerization, thought to occur as elongation of existing filaments, lead to protrusion [ 12 27 28 ] . Our observation of BDM activity suggests an alternative explanation.
