Figure Lengend Snippet: Asymmetric tails of actin filament networks generated by incubating Ni-functionalized and fluorescent lipid-coated beads with His-VVCA (N-WASP), followed by addition of 100 nM Arp2/3 complex, 5 µM profilin-actin, and 50 nM CP for 30 min (top row). Addition of 500 nM V-1 to the reaction mixture resulted in F-actin growing from the bead surface as a symmetric ring and a diffuse cloud around the bead (second row). Addition of low concentrations of His-CBR126 resulted in asymmetric F-actin tail growth from the bead (rows labeled 35 nM and 50 nM), and higher concentrations inhibited actin growth (row labeled 2000 nM).
