Insights into the origin of metazoan filopodia and microvilli. [PDF]
, 2013 Filopodia are fine actin-based cellular projections used for both environmental sensing and cell motility, and they are essential organelles for metazoan cells. In this study, we reconstruct the origin of metazoan filopodia and microvilli.
