In cells, key actin-binding proteins regulate specific steps in this cycle. Other actin-binding proteins crosslink filaments into bundles or networks.

A research team reveals a critical cellular mechanism that enables this navigation: the dynamic remodeling of actin filaments at the tip of pollen tubes.

This study explores the use of polarized second-harmonic generation (pSHG) to investigate myosin conformation in the relaxed state, differentiating between the actin-available, disordered (ON) state ...

A new study led by Children's Hospital Los Angeles has found a novel mechanism behind neuroblastoma progression: the shape and structure of the extracellular matrix.

While their functions are diverse, myosins are similar in structure. NMII is so much like cardiac myosin, which keeps the ...
