Profilin, a ubiquitous 12 to 15-kDa protein, serves many functions, including sequestering monomeric actin, accelerating nucleotide exchange on actin monomers, decreasing the critical concentration of the barbed end of actin filaments, and promoting actin polymerization when barbed ends are free.

During actin polymerization, it has been theorized that the actin filament length distribution initially grows in the form of a Gaussian before converting to produce that of an exponential. However, it has been difficult to demonstrate this experimentally. In this study, we use modern fluorescence m
