title: Internal actin filament dynamics in the presence of vinculin: a dynamic light scattering study.
abstract: Analyses of dynamic light scattering data by stretched exponential fit show that vinculin has a negligible influence on internal actin filament dynamics and actin bending stiffness which contrasts with our previous observations with talin, another actin and vinculin-binding protein from focal adhesions. The results here agree with kinetic and rheologic measurements.
