Cofilin-mediated actin filament network flexibility facilitates 2D to 3D actomyosin shape change

The organization of actin filaments (F-actin) into crosslinked networks determines the transmission of mechanical stresses within the cytoskeleton and subsequent changes in cell and tissue shape. Principally mediated by proteins such as α-actinin, F-actin crosslinking increases both network connecti...
