The actin cytoskeleton drives many essential processes in vivo, using molecular motors and actin assembly as force generators. We discuss here the propagation of forces caused by actin polymerization, highlighting simple configurations where the force developed by the network can exceed the sum of the polymerization forces from all filaments.
肌动蛋白细胞骨架利用分子马达和肌动蛋白组装作为力的产生器,在体内驱动许多重要过程。我们在此讨论由肌动蛋白聚合引起的力的传播,重点介绍网络产生的力可能超过所有细丝聚合力总和的简单构型。
