Similarly to mice that lack other regulators of the cytoskeleton, HEM1-deficient T cells showed decreased activation and proliferation compared with wild-type T cells. Surprisingly, some T-cell ...

The cytoskeleton of eukaryotic cells is made of ... Microtubules are the largest type of filament, with a diameter of about 25 nanometers (nm), and they are composed of a protein called tubulin.

Nonetheless, one common feature of all types of endocytosis is the use of actin-generated forces to aid plasma membrane deformation required for the completion of the internalisation process. We aim ...

Rho GTPases are molecular switches that control the cytoskeleton. The spreading of cancer cells from one part of the body to another, called metastasis, is one of the main causes of cancer death. To ...
