Extends yeast ARP classification; leaves open functional roles pending experimental validation.
Proposes a new classification and nomenclature system for actin-related proteins in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Poch et al. (1997) studied this question. Inspection of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome revealed seven new actin-related proteins (Arp4-Arp10), which were classified and named based on their amino acid identity and similarity to actins.
