Published: January 2024

Cellular functions of actin capping protein (CP) regulators are poorly understood. Di Pietro and colleagues (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202306154) shed unprecedented light on this topic using budding yeast. Two proteins with CPI (capping protein interacting) motifs recruit CP to sites of actin assembly, while a third contributes to CP turnover.
