Identification of a Common Interactome of Beta‐Actin and Its Prokaryotic Homolog MreB Reveals Conserved Physiological Functions of Actin Family of Cytoskeletal Proteins

Bacterial actin-like proteins such as MreB and FtsA have been identified through structural homology to monomeric actin and their ability to form actin-like filaments. Furthermore, recent advances in structural biology have unearthed proteins that regulate the dynamics of these b...
