Actin–Microtubule Crosstalk Imparts Stiffness to the Contractile Ring in Fission Yeast

Actin–Microtubule Crosstalk Imparts Stiffness to the Contractile Ring in Fission Yeast

Actin–microtubule interactions are critical for cell division, yet how these networks of polymers mutually influence their mechanical properties and functions in live cells remains unknown. In fission yeast, the post-anaphase array (PAA) of microtubules assembles in the plane of the contractile ring...
