DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2018.10.008
Abstract: Actomyosin contractility regulates various biological processes, including cell migration and cytokinesis. The cell cortex underlying the membrane of eukaryote cells exhibits dynamic contractile behaviors facilitated by actomyosin contractility. Interestingly, the cell cortex shows reversible aggregation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.devcel.2019.02.012
Abstract: Cell polarity is facilitated by a rearrangement of the actin cytoskeleton at the cell cortex. The program triggering the asymmetric remodeling of contractile actomyosin networks remains poorly understood. Here, we show that polarization of Caenorhabditis… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.mod.2017.04.254
Abstract: morphogenesis coupled to cell proliferation. Coordination of cell shape changes and cell divisions requires spatially-biased remodelling of actomyosin cytoskeleton in response to intrinsic or extrinsic inputs. In Caenorhabditis elegans zygotes, transient flows of cortical actomyosin… read more here.

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e22-03-0107
Abstract: Expansive Arp2/3 actin networks and contractile actomyosin networks can be spatially and temporally segregated within the cell, but the networks also interact closely at various sites, including adherens junctions. However, molecular mechanisms coordinating these interactions… read more here.
