Kinetics of actin networks formation measured by time resolved particle-tracking microrheology
Maayan Levin, Raya Sorkin, David Pine +3
Actin is one of the most studied cytoskeleton proteins showing a very rich span of structures. It can self-assemble actively into dynamical structures that govern the mechanical pr…
