The actin family consists of conventional actin and actin-related proteins (ARPs), and the
members show moderate similarity and share the same basal structure. Following the …

Actin's functional complexity makes it a likely target of oxidative stress but also places it in a
prime position to coordinate the response to oxidative stress. We have previously shown that …

Actin is a key regulator of RNA polymerase (Pol) II-dependent transcription. Positive
transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb), a Cdk9/cyclin T1 heterodimer, has been reported …

Chromatin remodelling is a prerequisite for nuclear processes, and cells have several
different ways of remodelling the chromatin structure. The ATP-dependent chromatin …

Groupers are an economically important fish species in world fishery markets. Because
many studies using RT-qPCR have addressed gene expression in groupers, appropriate …

Dynamics of actin filaments is pivotal to many fundamental cellular processes such as
cytokinesis, motility, morphology, vesicle and organelle transport, gene transcription and …

Baculovirus infection occurs when susceptible insect larvae ingest viral occlusions and
occlusion-derived virus is released in the midgut lumen. Midgut columnar epithelial cells …

Actin is a protein abundant in many cell types. Decades of investigations have provided
evidence that it has many functions in living cells. The diverse morphology and dynamics of …

Nuclear actin and nuclear myosins have been implicated in the regulation of gene
expression in vertebrate cells. Myosin V is a class of actin‐based motor proteins involved in …

DNA replication is a ubiquitous and conserved cellular process. However, regulation of DNA
replication is only understood in a small fraction of organisms that poorly represent the …
