Actin filament: Art, Actin in cells & In vitro self-assembly

Actin filaments (also known as microfilaments) are protein filaments in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells that form part of the cytoskeleton. They are primarily composed of polymers of actin, but are modified by and interact with numerous other proteins in the cell. Actin filaments are usually about 7 nm in diameter and made up of two strands of actin.…
