Actin polymerisation in Walker 256 carcinoma cells from solid or ascitic tumours. 1981

G A Goodlad, and C M Clark

Use was made of the differential DNase I assay to estimate the relative amounts of polymerised and unpolymerised actin in Walker 256 carcinoma cells from solid or ascitic tumours. The concentration of actin per unit DNA and the relative amount of actin present in a polymerised form were both greater in ascitic tumour cells than in cells from solid tumours.

D002279 Carcinoma 256, Walker A transplantable carcinoma of the rat that originally appeared spontaneously in the mammary gland of a pregnant albino rat, and which now resembles a carcinoma in young transplants and a sarcoma in older transplants.

D000199 Actins Filamentous proteins that are the main constituent of the thin filaments of muscle fibers. The filaments (known also as filamentous or F-actin) can be dissociated into their globular subunits; each subunit is composed of a single polypeptide 375 amino acids long. This is known as globular or G-actin. In conjunction with MYOSINS, actin is responsible for the contraction and relaxation of muscle.
