Yeast Aim21/Tda2 both regulates free actin by reducing barbed end assembly and forms a complex with Cap1/Cap2 to balance actin assembly between patches and cables.

ABSTRACT: Yeast Aim21 is recruited by the SH3-containing proteins Bbc1 and Abp1 to patches and, with Tda2, reduces barbed end assembly to balance the distribution of actin between patches and cables. Aim21/Tda2 also interacts with Cap1/Cap2, revealing a complex interplay between actin assembly regulators.
