What does actin do in the cell cycle?
Actin facilitates the step of cytokinesis in the cell cycle. At the end of mitosis, the duplicated DNA has been divided into two daughter cells, and the cells must be separated. Actin forms a contractile ring with the protein myosin, which constricts and separates the membranes of the two daughter cells.
