Cellular velocity, electrical persistence and sensing in developed and vegetative cells during electrotaxis.

Cells have the ability to detect electric fields and respond to them with directed migratory movement. Investigations identified genes and proteins that play important roles in defining the migration efficiency. Nevertheless, the sensing and transduction mechanisms underlying directed cell migration...
