Embryonic ring closure: Actomyosin rings do the two-step
Actomyosin rings drive numerous closure processes, but the mechanisms by which they contract are still poorly understood. In this issue, Xue and Sokac (2016. J. Cell Biol. http://dx.doi.org/10.108/jcb.201608025) show that actomyosin ring closure during Drosophila melanogaster cellularization uses tw...
