Actin Gamma 1 Proteins and Enzymes

Actin, gamma 1 (ACTG1) is a member of the actin protein family, a highly conserved protein group with three main isoforms: alpha, beta and gamma. Alpha actins are mainly expressed in muscle tissues where they are a major constituent of the contractile apparatus, whereas beta and gamma actin proteins are widely expressed in most cell types where they are predominantly involved in cell motility and cytoskeleton maintenance. Actin gamma 1 is a cytoplasmic actin isoform usually found in nonmuscle ...
