In cross-linking experiments, birch profilin competed with thymosin beta‑4 for actin binding but had no effect on gelsolin segment 1 binding.
In plain wordsIn lab tests, plant profilin competed with thymosin beta‑4 for binding to actin. The result is about profilin, not thymosin beta‑4 itself.

Source sentences
Cross-linking experiments with actin, birch profilin, the G-actin binding peptide thymosin beta 4 and gelsolin segment 1, the N-terminal fragment of an actin capping protein, showed that profilin competed with thymosin beta 4, but had no effect on segment 1 binding to actin.
In this study, Thymosin beta-4 (human) was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. This result is not evidence about taking Thymosin beta-4 (human).
