Right: Cells whose actin filaments were disrupted. Time zero indicates the beginning cell plate formation. The phragmoplast microtubules are yellow, and the cell plate is magenta. Using microscopic ...
An electron microscopy study revealed key details of actin filaments, which are essential structural elements of cells and muscles. Actin filaments -- protein structures critical to living movement ...
Actin filaments - protein structures critical to living movement from single cells to animals - have long been known to have polarity associated with their physical characteristics, with growing ...
Researchers have visualized at the molecular level how formins bind to the ends of actin filaments. This allowed them to uncover how formins mediate the addition of new actin molecules to a growing ...
The formation of the branched actin networks is essential for cell polarity, but it remains unclear how the debranching activity of actin filaments contributes to this process. Here, we showed that an ...
Researchers used Listeria's movement as a model to build nanomotors inside artificial cells, giving them lifelike mobility ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Phototropins (phot1 and phot2 in Arabidopsis thaliana) relay blue light intensity information to the chloroplasts, which move toward weak ...
No one has yet created a fully functioning artificial cell. But a research team at Aarhus University has taken a step in that ...
Researchers at Kanazawa University report in eLife on deciphering the actin structure-dependent preferential cooperative binding of cofilin. The actin filament is a double-stranded helical structure ...
Cancer cells are subjected to high mechanical pressure that leads to a rupture of the nuclear envelope when migrating through narrow tissue structures, as in the case of metastasis. DNA would normally ...
