#Unit 2. Cellular Organization
Match the following toxins (Column I) with their effects (Column II) on actin.
Column I |
Column II |
A.
Cytochalasin D |
i. Enhances
nucleation by binding and stabilizing actin dimers and thereby lowering the
critical concentration. |
B.
Latrunculin |
ii. Binds at
the interface between subunits in F-actin,
locking adjacent subunits together and preventing actin filaments from
depolymerizing. |
C.
Jasplakinolide |
iii.
Depolymerizes actin filaments by binding to the (+) end of F-actin, where it
blocks further addition of subunits. |
D. Phalloidin |
iv. Binds and
sequesters G-actin, inhibiting it from adding to a filament end. |
