A microscopic image shows small red centers connected by networks of branched and straight filaments. The team mixed purified actin monomers with precise concentrations of two nucleation-promoting ...

Investigators have discovered that two cytoskeletal proteins which were previously thought to function independently actually interact and form cytoskeletal networks within the cell surface, according ...

A defining characteristic of all cells is the plasma membrane, a thin layer of lipids that separates the interior of the cell from the outside environment. The plasma membrane is supported by the ...

During cell division, adherent animal cells round up to create the precise spatial geometry required for accurate chromosome segregation, a process that depends on the coordinated remodeling of the ...
