DOI: 10.1007/s10237-019-01228-z
Abstract: Mechanisms of the assembly of actin stress fibers (SFs) have been extensively studied, while those of the disassembly—particularly cell shortening-induced ones—remain unclear. Here, we show that SFs have helical structures composed of multi-subbundles, and they… read more here.
