Dynamic actin crosslinking governs the cytoplasm’s transition to fluid-like behavior

2019-09-18

Abstract excerpt

Cells precisely control their mechanical properties to organize and differentiate into tissues. The architecture and connectivity of cytoskeletal filaments changes in response to mechanical and biochemical cues, allowing the cell to rapidly tune its mechanics from highly-crosslinked, elastic networks to weakly-crosslinked viscous networks. While the role of actin crosslinking in controlling actin network mechanics...
