Probing the affinity of polyanions for acidic fibroblast growth factor by unfolding kinetics.

abstract：:The polymerization of scallop beta-like actin is significantly slower than that of skeletal muscle alpha-actin. To reveal which steps of polymerization contribute to this difference, we estimated the efficiency of nucleation of the two actins, the rates of filament elongation at spontaneous and gelsolin-nucleated poly...
