WASP and SCAR are evolutionarily conserved in actin-filled pseudopod-based motility
2016-05-04
Abstract excerpt
Diverse eukaryotic cells crawl through complex environments using distinct modes of migration. To understand the underlying mechanisms and their evolutionary relationships, we must define each mode, and identify its phenotypic and molecular markers. Here, we focus on a widely dispersed migration mode characterized by dynamic, actin-filled pseudopods that we call “ α -motility.” Mining genomic data reveals a clear...
