Nucleation phase 

Two G-actin molecules bind relatively weakly to each other, but addition of a third actin monomer to form a trimer makes the entire group more stable, acts as a nucleus for polymerization.

An individual carrying the allele can pass copies of it to his or her own children. This is the allele’s direct fitness. The allele can also pass extra copies of itself to the next generation as the result of the increased fitness of relatives that benefit from the altruistic individual’s actions. This is the allele’s indirect fitness.
