Answer:
Cofilin binds to older actin filaments
Explanation:
Microfilaments (also called actin filaments) are a class of protein filament common to all eukaryotic cells, which consist of two strands of subunits of the protein actin. Microfilaments form part of the cell's cytoskeleton and interact with the protein myosin in order to allow the movement of the cell. Within the cell, actin may show two different forms: monomeric G-actin and polymeric F-actin filaments. Microfilaments provide shape to the cell because these filaments can depolymerize (disassemble) and polymerize (assembly) quickly, thereby allowing the cell to change its shape. During the polymerization process, the ATP that is bound to G-actin is hydrolyzed to ADP, which is bound to F-actin. ATP-actin subunits are present at the barbed ends of the filaments, and cleavage of the ATP molecules produces highly stable filaments bound to ADP. In consequence, it is expected that cofilin binds preferentially to highly stable (older) filaments ADP-actin filaments instead of ATP-actin filaments.
When using the term 'life form' I assume you are speaking of animals, bacteria, etc. Scientists take years to find their desired conclusion because of how the environment tends to change quite frequently (Depending on where the creature lives). The earth is constantly revolving and rotating, which causes changes in the environment. These changes affect the animals behavior, eating habits, and overall chances of survival. A factor that must also be considered is that scientists have to examine these creatures in their natural habitat which can be an issue depending on where they live. For example, if I were to study the behavioral patterns of a Leopard, it would be extremely difficult to do so because the Leopards are specifically keen at camouflaging in their environment. That would make observing its behavioral patterns very frustrating and time consuming. In a way, mother nature is always against us.
