More model informationActin proteins (G-actin) are the basic structural units that polymerize to form actin filaments, which are one of the major components of the cell cytoskeleton.
Each G-actin is made up of two identical domains (domain 1 and domain 2 shown in the model) separated by a central cleft, which contains the binding site for nucleotides (ATP/ADP).
Actin structure derived from PDB: 3JBJ.
