Actin can exist in monomeric form as G-actin (globular actin) or can form filaments (F-actin, filamentous actin) and mediates multiple cellular functions, including cell migration, contractility ...

Latrunculin-A, an actin monomer-binding drug that renders the monomers incompetent for filament formation, was added to cells at a concentration of 0.5 μM, and the percentage of cells with actin ...

Existing literature indicates that QDs interact spontaneously with intracellular proteins like G-actin, leading to the disruption of its function through alterations in the monomeric actin's ...
