Cell-Substrate Patterns Driven by Curvature-Sensitive Actin Polymerization: Waves and Podosomes

Cells adhered to an external solid substrate are observed to exhibit rich dynamics of actin structures on the basal membrane, which are distinct from those observed on the dorsal (free) membrane. Here we explore the dynamics of curved membrane proteins, or protein complexes, that recruit actin polym...
