Actin is a versatile and ubiquitous cytoskeletal protein that plays a major role in both the
establishment and the maintenance of neuronal polarity. For a long time, the most prominent …

Force transmission through the actin cytoskeleton plays a central role in cell movements,
shape change, and internal organization. Dynamic reorganization of actin filaments by an …

Kinesin-1, the founding member of the kinesin superfamily of proteins, is known to use only
a subset of microtubules for transport in living cells. This biased use of microtubules is …

Actin and its dynamic structural remodelings are involved in multiple cellular functions,
including maintaining cell shape and integrity, cytokinesis, motility, navigation, and muscle …

The effects of N-terminal acetylation of the high molecular weight tropomyosin isoforms
Tpm1. 6 and Tpm2. 1 and the low molecular weight isoforms Tpm1. 12, Tpm3. 1, and Tpm4 …

The assembly of actin filaments into distinct cytoskeletal structures plays a critical role in cell
physiology, but how proteins localize differentially to these structures within a shared …

Actin filament dynamics must be precisely controlled in cells to execute behaviors such as
vesicular trafficking, cytokinesis, and migration. Coronins are conserved actin-binding …

Highly specialized cells, such as neurons and podocytes, have arborized morphologies that
serve their specific functions. Actin cytoskeleton and its associated proteins are responsible …

A wide variety of uniquely localized actin-binding proteins (ABPs) are involved in various
cellular activities, such as cytokinesis, migration, adhesion, morphogenesis, and intracellular …

Serotonin (5-HT) is known to increase the rate of growth cone advance via cofilin-dependent
increases in retrograde actin network flow and nonmuscle myosin II activity. We report that …
