Arp2/3 complex activity in filopodia of spreading cells
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Cells use filopodia to explore their environment and to form new adhesion contacts for motility and spreading. The Arp2/3 complex has been implicated in lamellipodial actin assembly as a major nucleator of new actin filaments in bran...
