When fat is not bad: the regulation of actin dynamics by phospholipid signaling molecules
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014 The actin cytoskeleton plays a key role in the plant morphogenesis and is involved in polar cell growth, movement of subcellular organelles, cell division, and plant defense.

Intracellular tension sensor reveals mechanical anisotropy of the actin cytoskeleton
Nature Communications, 2023 The filamentous actin (F-actin) cytoskeleton is a composite material consisting of cortical actin and bundled F-actin stress fibers, which together mediate the mechanical behaviors of the cell, from cell division to cell migration. However, as mechanical

Organization and Regulation of the Actin Cytoskeleton in the Pollen Tube
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2015 Proper organization of the actin cytoskeleton is crucial for pollen tube growth. However, the precise mechanisms by which the actin cytoskeleton regulates pollen tube growth remain to be further elucidated.

Wnt signalling and the actin cytoskeleton [PDF]
Oncogene, 2006 The tumour suppressor adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) is mutated in sporadic and familial colorectal tumours. APC binds to beta-catenin, a key component of the Wnt signalling pathway, and induces its degradation. In addition to this role, there is increasing evidence for additional roles of APC, including the organization of cytoskeletal networks. APC

T lymphocyte migration: an action movie starring the actin and associated actors
Frontiers in Immunology, 2015 The actin cytoskeleton is composed of a dynamic filament meshwork that builds the architecture of the cell to sustain its fundamental properties. This physical structure is characterized by a continuous remodeling, which allows cells to accomplish ...

An actin‐based cytoskeleton in archaea [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2011 Summary In eukaryotic and bacterial cells, spatial organization is dependent upon cytoskeletal filaments. Actin is a main eukaryotic cytoskeletal element, involved in key processes such as cell shape determination, mechanical force generation and cytokinesis.

Oxidation and reduction of actin: Origin, impact in vitro and functional consequences in vivo
European Journal of Cell Biology, 2022 Actin is among the most abundant proteins in eukaryotic cells and assembles into dynamic filamentous networks regulated by many actin binding proteins. The actin cytoskeleton must be finely tuned, both in space and time, to fulfill key cellular functions
