“…This activity has been demonstrated for CAPs from budding yeast (Freeman et al, 1995), Dictyostelium (Gottwald et al, 1996), Arabidopsis (Chaudhry et al, 2007), C. elegans (CAS-1 and CAS-2) (Nomura et al, 2012;Nomura and Ono, 2013), pig platelets (ASP-56/CAP1) (Gieselmann and Mann, 1992), humans (CAP2) (Peche et al, 2013) and Cryptosporidium (C-CAP) (Hliscs et al, 2010). The effect of CAP on actin elongation is somewhat controversial; Freeman et al (Freeman et al, 1995) reported that yeast Srv2/CAP inhibits the incorporation of G-actin to either pointed or barbed ends of actin filaments, whereas Mattila et al reported that yeast Srv2/CAP specifically inhibits the incorporation of G-actin to the barbed end.…”
