I’m pleased to share our latest preprint (my first as 1st-author) from Jérôme Gros’ group (@jeromegros.bsky.social), now on bioRxiv. It reports actin and myosin dynamics during epithelial remodeling in avian gastrulation. (doi: doi.org/10.64898/202...)
Epithelial remodeling is powered by contractile forces exerted by the actomyosin cytoskeleton. In invertebrates, pulsatile contractile flows of the medio-apical actomyosin cortex have been shown to be...
