XL THE QUESTION OF REDUNDANCY IN ACTIN BINDING PROTEINS The huge number of ABPs in cells, and the high concentration at which some are present, may mean that an overprescription for actin-binding sites exists in cells, that is, there are more ABPs present than actin to bind them. , 1994). , transgelin and aldolase) in "physiological" salt concentrations are known to bind actin in cells (Pagliaro & 30 SUTHERLAND K. MACIVER Taylor, 1988), possibly through interactions with other ABPs. Another possible complication is that some ABPs are known to modulate the angular twist between subunits in the actin filament (Stokes & DeRosier, 1987), thereby altering (albeit subtly) the exposed surface of the actin filament, and concomitantly the type of ABP bound.

This is not to say that all these interactions are explained totally by nonspecific charge interactions, since several lines of evidence point to the specificity of such interaction with at least some actin binding proteins. The interaction is especially convincing in the case of profilin, members of the gelsolin group, and a-actinin. , 1990).
