Axonal Spectrins: Nanoscale Organization, Functional Domains and Spectrinopathies
Spectrin cytoskeletons are found in all metazoan cells, and their physical interactions between actin and ankyrins establish a meshwork that provides cellular structural integrity. With advanced super-resolution microscopy, the intricate spatial organization and associated functional properties of t...
