These data provide an important caveat for those using Lifeact and studying actin dynamics during cell stress and indicate that Lifeact may not be a universal tool for studying actin dynamics in ...

Visualization of filamentous actin (F-actin) in living cells is critical for the study of morphogenetic processes such as cell division, migration or polarization. We recently described in these ...

Actin is a highly abundant protein that controls the shape and movement of all our cells. Actin achieves this by assembling into filaments, one actin molecule at a time. The proteins of the formin ...
