[[Actin]] is a protein found in all eukaryotic cells.  It is the monomer of two types of filaments: microfilaments which are part of the cytoskeleton and thin filaments which are part of muscles.  Three isoforms of actin are identified: α (Aa) (or G-actin) found in muscle tissue, β (Ab) and γ (Ag) actins  are components of the cytoskeleton.  F-actin is Aa bound to ATP. The images at the left and at the right correspond to one representative Actin, ''i.e.'' the crystal structure of rabbit Native G-actin ([[3hbt]]).  For more details see:<br /> *[[F-actin]]<br /> *[[Non-polymerizable monomeric actin]].<br /> <scene name='Actin/Cv/2'>Click here to see the difference between 2 conformations of bovine Ag actin</scene> (PDB entries [[1hlu]] and [[2btf]]; morph was taken from [http://molmovdb.org/cgi-bin/movie.cgi Gallery of Morphs] of the [http://molmovdb.org Yale Morph Server]).

Mutations in α-actin found in skeletal striated muscles can cause myopathy.  Mutations in α-actin found in smooth muscles can cause thoracic aortic aneurism. Mutations in α-actin found in heart muscles can cause heart malfunctioning.
