Electrostatic and bending energies predict staggering and splaying in nonmuscle myosin II minifilaments.
Recent experiments with super-resolution live cell microscopy revealed that nonmuscle myosin II minifilaments are much more dynamic than formerly appreciated, often showing plastic processes such as splitting, concatenation and stacking. Here we combine sequence information, electrostatics and elast...
