Popis: We have previously described a protein called “insertin” that binds strongly to barbed ends of actin filaments and permits polymerization of actin filaments by insertion of actin monomers between the barbed ends and barbed end-bound insertin. We determined the amino acid sequence of insertin and found that the primary structure of insertin is almost identical to amino acid residues 862 to 1212 of the actin-binding protein tensin.
