A novel mechanism of intracellular transport: sieving by an anchored homogeneously contracting F-actin meshwork

Summary Actin-based contractility orchestrates changes in cell shape underlying cellular functions ranging from division to migration and wound healing [ [1], [2], [3], [4] and [5]]. Actin also functions in intracellular transport, with the prevailing view that filamentous actin (F-actin) cables ser...
