Model of myosin node aggregation into a contractile ring: the effect of local alignment.

Journal of physics. Condensed matter : an Institute of Physics journal - 21 Sept 2011

Ojkic Nikola, Wu Jian-Qiu, Vavylonis Dimitrios

Abstract excerpt

Actomyosin bundles frequently form through aggregation of membrane-bound myosin clusters. One such example is the formation of the contractile ring in fission yeast from a broad band of cortical nodes. Nodes are macromolecular complexes containing several dozens of myosin-II molecules and a few formin dimers. The condensation of a broad band of nodes into the contractile ring has been previously described by a...
