Description
All eukaryotic cell types express actin. The regulation of the actin cytoskeleton is tightly linked to vital biological properties such as polarity. motility. cell-cell contact. exocytosis and proliferation (1&2). While lower eukaryotes such as yeast. have only one actin gene; higher eukaryotes have several isoforms encoded by a family of genes (3&4). At least six types of actin are present in mammalian tissues and fall into three classes (5). Alpha-actin expression is limited to various types of muscle. whereas beta and gamma are the principle constituents of filaments in other tissues (6).
