Actin is the most abundant protein in our bodies. It is found in all our muscles, forming part of the machinery that converts the chemical energy from food into the mechanical energy of movement. But actin does more than just work in muscles; it is also found in every cell in our bodies, forming a network of filaments called the cytoskeleton that is a structural support for the cells.

肌动蛋白是我们体内最丰富的蛋白质。 它存在于我们所有的肌肉中，形成了将食物中的化学能转化为运动机械能的机器的一部分。 但是肌动蛋白不仅仅在肌肉中起作用;它也存在于我们身体的每个细胞中，形成一个称为细胞骨架的细丝网络，是细胞的结构支撑。
