Of interest, electroporation of C3 in conjunction with FITC-labeled monomers of actin did not demonstrate incorporation of FITC-actin in the altered pseudopods at early time points (data not shown), suggesting that the filamentous actin in the altered pseudopods initially results from rearrangement of pre-formed actin filaments.
An autocrine effect of conceptus estrogen synthesis has been suggested as filamentous conceptuses have greater gene expression for estrogen receptor β compared to its spherical and tubular counterparts [ 9 ] .
The coiled-coil motif has also been identified in a variety of proteins associated with centromeres, centrosomes, the nuclear matrix, and chromatin [ 10 11 12 13 14 ] .
