Journal ArticleDOI

Periodic Lamellipodial Contractions Correlate with Rearward Actin Waves

TL;DR: It is proposed that an actin bound, contraction-activated signaling complex is transported locally from the tip to the base of the lamellipodium, activating the next contraction/extension cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lamellipodial Actin Mechanically Links Myosin Activity with Adhesion-Site Formation

TL;DR: Actin polymerization periodically builds a mechanical link, the lamellipodium, connecting myosin motors with the initiation of adhesion sites, suggesting that the major functions driving motility are coordinated by a biomechanical process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Super-resolution imaging reveals that AMPA receptors inside synapses are dynamically organized in nanodomains regulated by PSD95.

TL;DR: The observation that AMPARs are highly concentrated in nanodomains, instead of diffusively distributed in the PSD as generally thought, has important consequences on the understanding of excitatory neurotransmission.
Journal ArticleDOI

Two-piconewton slip bond between fibronectin and the cytoskeleton depends on talin

TL;DR: It is suggested that talin1 initially forms a molecular slip bond between closely packed fibronectin–integrin complexes and the actin cytoskeleton, which can apply a low level of force to fibronECTin until many bonds form or a signal is received to activate a force response.
