Mechanics of Motor Proteins and the Cytoskeleton is written for students ... properties of protein molecules contribute to cell structure and motility. It is an advanced-level text, and the ...

Each of these helps maintain cell structure and function throughout interphase and is essential as the cell progresses through the cell cycle. To support students’ understanding of the cytoskeleton, a ...

The artificial cytoskeleton developed in this study mimics natural functions, enhancing mechanical stability and membrane ...

Susan Parkhurst studies the cytoskeleton, the cell’s internal framework. The cytoskeleton is a dynamic structure, constantly forming and breaking down to meet the cell’s changing needs, including ...

We aim to understand the molecular logic behind the dynamics of the actin cytoskeleton at endocytic sites and how disturbances in this process affect physiology and disease progression. Leonardo is ...

Just like your body has a skeleton, every cell in your body has a skeleton—a cytoskeleton to be precise. This provides cells with mechanical resilience, as well as assisting with cell division.
