Journal ArticleDOI
Actin microfilament dynamics in locomoting cells
TL;DR: In goldfish epithelial keratocytes, the actin microfilaments in the lamellipodium remain approximately fixed relative to the substrate as the cell moves over them, regardless of cell speed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanism of shape determination in motile cells
Kinneret Keren,Zachary Pincus,Greg M. Allen,Erin L. Barnhart,Gerard Marriott,Alex Mogilner,Julie A. Theriot +6 more
TL;DR: The natural phenotypic variability in a large population of motile epithelial keratocytes from fish to reveal mechanisms of shape determination is harnessed and it is found that the cells inhabit a low-dimensional, highly correlated spectrum of possible functional states.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differentiation and developmental pathways of uropathogenic Escherichia coli in urinary tract pathogenesis.

TL;DR: This work has developed a technique to observe live infected organs and revealed a complex differentiation pathway that facilitates bacterial persistence in the urinary tract.
Journal ArticleDOI
The rate of actin-based motility of intracellular Listeria monocytogenes equals the rate of actin polymerization.
TL;DR: The results imply that the motile mechanism involves continuous polymerization and release of actin filaments at the bacterial surface and that the rate of filament generation is related to the rates of movement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bacterial chromosomal loci move subdiffusively through a viscoelastic cytoplasm.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors track fluorescently labeled chromosomal loci in live bacterial cells and reveal a robust scaling of the mean square displacement (MSD) as τ(0.39).
