State transitions of a confined actomyosin system controlled through contractility and polymerization rate

Pattern formation induced by symmetry breaking is a fundamental concept underlying biological phenomena across different scales, from single cells to tissues. However, the mechanics behind the pattern formation of the actomyosin system remains elusive due to complex biochemical regulations in living...
