Actin filaments

Uploaded 11.21.2012

The types of actin filament networks produced depend on the concentration of the binding proteins that cross-link filaments together. Figure 1 shows a protein cross-linking actin filaments. Figures 2a-d show filament networks produced with increasing protein concentration, respectively: weakly cross linked (2a), composite (2b), bundles (2c), and bundle cluster (2d).
