Fluorescein, acrylodan and pyrene conjugates of horse plasma gelsolin : responses to calcium, actin and tropomyosin

Gelsolin, a protein involved in the regulation of actin filament length, was isolated from horse plasma and modified with the amine-selective reagent fluorescein-5-isothiocyanate (FITC). The extent of FITC incorporation per gelsolin molecule was 4.8 ± 0.6, based upon 4 labelling trials. FITC-gels...
