How can you use “actin-binding” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
α-Actinin is an actin-binding cytoskeletal protein present in a variety of cells [ 1 ] and in focal adhesion sites where cells adhere to the substrate [ 2 ] . There is biochemical [ 3 ] and histologic [ 4 ] evidence that focal adhesion complexes, containing α-actinin and other footpad material, are left behind as a result of normal movement of cells [ 2 ] , perhaps at increased rates when neutrophils and monocytes move into inflammatory tissue.
The fusion protein was then cleaved with thrombin (Calbiochem, San Diego, CA) to yield the actin-binding domain of α-actinin and the GST carrier.
Localization studies and visualization of the actin cytoskeleton in live cells with an actin-binding protein tagged with green fluorescent protein (GFP) indicate that the organization of F-actin changes during trichome morphogenesis [ 33, 34].
Given the importance of actin-binding proteins in human disease, we mapped TMOD2 and TMOD4 and found them to localize to 15q21.
The F-actin-binding activity of moesin is regulated by both phosphorylation and polyphosphoinositides (PIPs) 1. Interestingly, PIPs could be substituted for by a cationic detergent, dodecyltrimethylammonium chloride (DOTMAC) in vitro [ 19].
