摘要：

In most cells, the structure of the actin cytoskeleton is regulated by Rho-family G proteins. Recent work has outlined a highly conserved signaling pathway from G protein activation to actin assembly. The key downstream components are WASP family proteins - adaptor molecules that bind multiple signaling and cytoskeletal proteins - and the Arp2/3 complex - a multi-functional protein complex that nucleates and crosslinks actin filaments.
