No biological system has been studied by more diverse approaches than the actin-based molecular motor myosin. Biophysics, biochemistry, physiology, classical genetics and molecular genetics have ...

An individual sarcomere contains many parallel actin (thin) and myosin (thick) filaments. The interaction of myosin and actin proteins is at the core of our current understanding of sarcomere ...

Furthermore, cofilin, which promotes actin turnover, and myosin, which interacts with actin, were crucial for vesicle fusion.

To achieve this, non-muscle myosin 2 forms higher-order filaments within the cell, which then interact with the actin cytoskeleton network to apply force and produce movement. Until recently ...

A Jupiter company secured millions in a seed funding round backed by Florida-based investors such as DeepWork Capital and the Florida Opportunity Fund.
