Rabbit muscle actin was purified from acetone powder (Pel-Freeze Biologicals) as described previously (Pardee and Spudich 1982 (link)). ADP-G-actin was prepared using hexokinase (Worthington Biochemical)-conjugated Sepharose beads as described previously (Makkonen et al. 2013 (link)). UNC-60A was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified as described previously (Ono and Benian 1998 (link)). DyLight 680-labeled actin was prepared as described for preparation of DyLight 549-labeled actin (Liu et al. 2010 (link)) using DyLight 680 NHS ester (Thermo Fisher Scientific). Histidine-tagged maltose-binding protein (MBP) was expressed from pDEST-HisMBP, which was developed by the group of David Waugh (National Cancer Institute, Frederick, MD) and obtained through Addgene, and purified as described (Nallamsetty and Waugh 2007 (link)).
