Dysregulation of actin-binding protein Profilin1 (Pfn1) in tumor cells has prominent impacts on the tumor-intrinsic aspects of tumor progression. However, whether and how modulation of Pfn1 expression...
α5β1 and αvβ3 integrins are core components of focal adhesions (FAs) involved in cell attachment, migration, and mechanobiology-dependent processes. Recent works indicate that both integrins organize ...
Myosins are actin-based molecular motors that power diverse forms of cellular motility across life. Initially characterized as the contractile machinery of muscle, the superfamily now includes numerou...
