Blebbing occurs when a call’s plasma membrane separates from its cytoskeleton and forms a membrane bulge filled with cytoplasm. This bulge will eventually separate from the cell, taking part of the ...

In addition, we determine the intrinsic bond constants of membrane-cytoskeleton bonds and their dissociation and association rates; the active processes (e.g., motor-requiring) that participate during ...

To ensure optimal power transmission to the plasma membrane, the branched actin network requires continuous maintenance. A key player in this process is the capping protein.

In magenta: actin cytoskeleton (cell "bones"), which is regulated by the lipid nanodomains. view more Credit: Marta Fratini Lipids are the building blocks of a cell's envelope - the cell membrane.

The plasma membrane serves as a major hub for signal cascades to control crucial cellular processes. But it is a fluid medium, which makes the signaling processes difficult to monitor. Now, German ...

Plasma membrane nano-organization specifies phosphoinositide effects on Rho-GTPases and actin dynamics in tobacco pollen tubes. The Plant Cell, 2020; DOI: 10.1093/plcell/koaa035 ...
