Actin, Alpha-Actinin and Tropomyosin Interaction in Structural Organization of Actin-Filaments in Nonmuscle Cells

Lazarides, E. (1975) Actin, Alpha-Actinin and Tropomyosin Interaction in Structural Organization of Actin-Filaments in Nonmuscle Cells. Journal of Cell Biology, 67 (2). A235-A235.

Abstract

During the spreading of a population of rat embryo cells, approximately 40% of the cells develop a strikingly regular network which precedes the formation of the straight actin filament bundles seen in the fully spread out cells. Immunofluorescence studies with antibodies specific for the skeletal muscle structural proteins actin, alpha-actinin, and tropomyosin indicate that this network is composed of foci containing actin and alpha-actinin, connected by tropomyosin-associated actin filaments.
