Gelsolin is one of the proteins that regulates the assembly and disassembly of actin filaments. In the presence of calcium, gelsolin severs actin filaments and "caps" their barbed end, preventing the addition of new subunits there. 1, record 3, English, - gelsolin

[Les protéines associées à l’actine] coupent [...] les liaisons entre les sous-unités d’actine, faisant apparaître de nouvelles extrémités barbées, qui sont aussitôt coiffées.
