Myosin II–independent contraction of actin filaments in membrane nanotubes
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Volume 123, Issue 37, September 2026. SignificanceForce generation by actin filaments is a fundamental property of Eukaryotic cells. These filaments can generate pushing forces via polymerization, pulling forces via the action of molecular motor proteins, and can generate filament sliding ...
