Three F-actin assembly centers regulate organelle inheritance, cell-cell communication and motility in Toxoplasma gondii
Toxoplasma gondii possesses a limited set of actin-regulatory proteins and relies on only three formins (FRMs) to nucleate and polymerize actin. We combined filamentous actin (F-actin) chromobodies with gene disruption to assign specific populations of actin filaments to individual formins. FRM2 loc...
