Fronts and waves of actin polymerization in a bistability-based mechanism of circular dorsal ruffles
Circular dorsal ruffles (CDRs) are important for the vesicular uptake of extracellular matter, but the basis of their wave dynamics is not understood. Here, the authors propose and experimentally test a bistable reaction-diffusion system, which they show accounts for the typical CDR expansion and sh...
