Question:
The predominant forms of actin inside a cell are ATP-Gactin and ADP-F-actin. Explain how the interconversion of the nucleotide state is coupled to the assembly and disassembly of actin subunits. What would be the consequence for actin filament assembly/disassembly if a mutation prevented actin's ability to bind ATP? What would be the consequence if a mutation prevented actin's ability to hydrolyze ATP?
