This protein typically binds ADP-actin actin filaments to promotes their rapid disassembly;
Gelsolin
Cofilin
Thymosin
Capping proteins
Cofilin.
Cofilin promotes disassembly if ADP-actin filaments. It prevents the reassembly at the minus end of the polymer by causing depolymerization. Gelsolin promotes the assembly of actin filaments by binding to the barbed end of actin filaments and preventing monomer exchange. Thymosin is a hormone that stimulates the production of T cells. Capping proteins favour the assembly of actin filaments by preventing loss of monomers from the barbed end of the actin.
