The diffusion coefficients of monodisperse polystyrene latex spheres in solutions of polymerized actin were measured using dynamic light scattering. Four different probes with radii R, ranging from 50 to 500 nm, were separately used in actin solutions with concentrations c, ranging from 1.5 to 21 p

We study the polymerization kinetics and linear rheology of actin filaments in the absence and in the presence of latrunculin A. Filamentous actin is a semiflexible polymer, and latrunculin A is an organic, actin-binding molecule. Using diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS), we monitor the thermally exc
The rotational and the translational diffusion coefficients of G-actin in solution have been obtained by polarized and depolarized dynamic light scattering, respectively. Modeling the shape of the molecule. by a biaxial ellipsoid of revolution, the hydrodynamic dimensions were calculated from the Pe
