- Confinement and low adhesion induce fast amoeboid migration of slow mesenchymal cells. (2015, unknown): “According to the well-accepted model for actin filament turnover (Wilson et al., 2010), new actin monomers are polymerized at the cell front and filamentous actin is severed at the back of the cell.”
- Life at the leading edge. (2011, background): “Myosin II activity is also implicated in actin filament disassembly at the back of the lamellipodium (Wilson et al., 2010).”
- Actin dynamics, architecture, and mechanics in cell motility. (2014, background): “Myosin motors present at the rear of the lamellipodium have been shown to increase disassembly, and thus accelerate the turnover of actin filaments in the lamellipodium (225, 339).”
