Active mechanics reveal molecular-scale force kinetics in living oocytes
Wylie W. Ahmed, Etienne Fodor, Maria Almonacid +6
Active diffusion of intracellular components is emerging as an important process in cell biology. This process is mediated by complex assemblies of molecular motors and cytoskeleta…
