Actin is an abundant eukaryotic protein involved in a variety of vital cellular events including, but not limited to cell migration, cytokinesis, endo- and exocytosis, organelle transport, and muscle contraction. We are interested in deciphering molecular and cellular mechanisms of actin-based processes, their regulation by actin binding proteins and disruption by bacterial and viral pathogens.
