Mesoscopic model for filament orientation in growing actin networks: the role of obstacle geometry
Propulsion by growing actin networks is a universal mechanism used in many different biological systems, ranging from the sheet-like lamellipodium of crawling animal cells to the actin comet tails induced by certain bacteria and viruses in order to move within their host cells. Although the core mol...
