Active diffusion and advection in Drosophila oocytes result from the interplay of actin and microtubules

Active diffusion and advection in Drosophila oocytes result from the interplay of actin and microtubules

Intracellular transport is facilitated by a combination of processes including directed transport, advection and diffusion. Here the authors microscopically characterise the dynamics of the Drosophila oocyte and find distinct contributions of cytoskeletal components to advection and active diffusion...
