“Cell migration is required and essential for metazoan development, tissue regeneration and repair, as well as in immune surveillance. Many diseases such as cancer, fibrosis, and inherited ...
Immunofluorescence image showing S100A11 (green) localization to focal adhesions and actin stress fibers in a HeLa cell. Microtubules are labeled in red. Researchers at Kanazawa University report in ...
Study shows for the first time that different forms of cellular adhesion structures can interconvert
Cells form adhesion structures to anchor themselves in their environment. The coordinated assembly and disassembly of these adhesions also enables cells to move from one place to another. There are ...
Cell migration depends on structures called focal adhesions that connect a cell to the surrounding extracellular matrix. Microtubules—long, thin polymers found in and around cells—help disassemble ...
Protein evolution occurs slowly via small incremental mutations—usually. However, dramatic changes can happen: for instance, a fragment of one protein getting copied into the middle of another. While ...
S100A11 is a small Ca 2+-activatable protein with an established role in different cellular processes involving actin cytoskeleton remodeling, such as cell migration, membrane protrusion formation, ...
