In addition, they have identified the growth
mechanism of the actin network by comparative in vivo and in vitro studies in order to ensure the validity of the process.

In this way, they uncovered the
mechanism which determines the functional characteristics
of actin filaments in all cells and orchestrates cellular activity.

The
actin cytoskeleton mediates these responses, but the signal transduction pathway leading to chloroplast movement and the
mechanism of chloroplast motility is not entirely understood.
Coordination between membrane trafficking and
actin polymerization is fundamental in cell migration, but a dynamic view
of the underlying molecular
mechanisms is still missing.

mechanisms of cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer cells Sharma S, Santiskulvong C, Bentolila, L A, Rao J, Dorigo O and Gimzewski J K 2012 Nanomedicine: Nanotechnology, Biology, and Medicine 8 757 - 766
A breakthrough in understanding the
mechanism of lamellipodial protrusion came from development
of an in vitro model system, namely the rocketing movement
of microbes and activated beads driven by
actin comet tails (Cameron et al., 1999, 2000; Loisel et al., 1999; Theriot et al., 1994).
The broad objective
of our research is to understand how epithelial cells interact with their microenvironment during migration, focusing on the
mechanism of cell migration and the role
of actin cytoskeleton in this process.
It is believed that the nucleus releases increased amounts
of mRNA as a response to muscle tension and myofibrillar damage, which happens because
of insufficient cycling
of the
actin / myosin cross-bridges which happen during very intense muscle contractions, even though the exact
mechanism is not yet understood in detail.
