Actin achieves this by assembling into filaments, one actin molecule at a time. The proteins of the formin family are pivotal partners in this process: positioned at the filament end, formins ...

Spir proteins nucleate actin polymerization by assembling a linear actin oligomer along a cluster of four actin-binding WH2 domains, and this process is enhanced by formins of the Cappuccino family.
