Minc Lab – Cytoplasm mechanics and cellular organization

Home publis, News23 November 2023
The Minc Lab recently published a new article in Cell Dynamics: Cytoplasm mechanics and cellular organization   Abstract: As cells organize spatially or divide, they translocate many micron-scale organelles in their cytoplasm. These include endomembrane vesicles, nuclei, microtubule asters, mitotic spindles, or chromosomes. Organelle motion is powered by cytoskeleton forces but is opposed by viscoelastic forces imparted by the surrounding…
