Nonmuscle Myosin-2 Contractility-Dependent Actin Turnover Limits Length of Epithelial Microvilli
Description
Left, NM2C is localized to the terminal web of enterocytes, the nutrient-absorbing cell of the small intestine. Right, Model of contractility-dependent actin turnover in brush border microvilli, summarizing the phenotypic observations linking NM2 inhibition, activation, and overexpression to perturbations to microvillus length.
