The F-actin protein was discovered by Straub in 1942. The structure was speculated based on a low-resolution x-ray crystallograph found in 1990 by Holmes et al. and over this time, the "Holmes model" was accepted. In contrast, over the G-actin structure has been determined over 30 times. A higher resolution F-actin model was only recently deposited in the PDB databank in Decemeber 2008 by Oda et al. <ref name="oda"><ref>PMID:19158791</ref>. | The F-actin protein was discovered by Straub in 1942.
