Actin and nuclear myosin 1 (NM1) are regulators of transcription and chromatin
organization. Using a genome‐wide approach, we report here that β‐actin binds intergenic …

Actin is one of the most abundant proteins in eukaryotic cells. For many years, its presence
in the nucleus has been considered an artefact, and the validity of the many reports …

Actin and nuclear myosin 1c (NM1) cooperate in RNA polymerase I (pol I) transcription. NM1
is also part of a multiprotein assembly, B-WICH, which is involved in transcription. This …

β‐and γ‐cytoplasmic actin are nearly indistinguishable in their amino acid sequence, but are
encoded by different genes that play non‐redundant biological roles. The key determinants …

Background Nuclear myosin 1c (NM1) is emerging as a regulator of transcription and
chromatin organization. Results Using chromatin immunoprecipitation and deep sequencing …

Actin is a highly abundant protein in eukaryotic cells and dynamically changes its
polymerized states with the help of actin-binding proteins. Its critical function as a constituent …

Cytoplasmic actins are abundant, ubiquitous proteins in nucleated cells. However, actin
expression is regulated in a tissue-and development-specific manner. We identified a novel …

Actin is associated with all three nuclear RNA polymerases and acts in concert with nuclear
myosin I (NM1) to drive transcription. Practically nothing is known regarding the state of actin …

Recent developments in the field of gene transcription regulation have unfolded a key role
for actin as an important co-factor for all three eukaryotic RNA polymerases. In this review …

Over more than three decades, sporadic and circumstantial evidence has accumulated to
suggest that nuclear actin has crucial functions in RNA polymerase II-based transcription …
