Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

The process of creating protein polymers, compounds composed of a large number of component monomers; polymeric proteins may be made up of different or identical monomers. Polymerization occurs by the addition of extra monomers to an existing poly- or oligomeric protein. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the process of creating protein polymers. Any process that increases the frequency, rate or extent of a process involved in the formation, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of an organelle. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the assembly of actin filaments by the addition of actin monomers to a filament. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of protein complex assembly. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of actin polymerization. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of a cellular process, any of those that are carried out at the cellular level, but are not necessarily restricted to a single cell. For example, cell communication occurs among more than one cell, but occurs at the cellular level. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the formation, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures. Assembly or disassembly of actin filaments by the addition or removal of actin monomers from a filament. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the assembly or disassembly of actin filaments by the addition or removal of actin monomers from a filament. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the process of creating protein polymers. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the formation, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures. A process that is carried out at the cellular level which results in the assembly, arrangement of constituent parts, or disassembly of cytoskeletal structures. Assembly of actin filaments by the addition of actin monomers to a filament. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of actin polymerization as part of the acrosome reaction.
