Myosin-Driven Advection and Actin Reorganization Control the Geometry of Confined Actomyosin Gel

Myosin-Driven Advection and Actin Reorganization Control the Geometry of Confined Actomyosin Gel

Harnessing nanoscale motor proteins to control material shape is a promising strategy in nanotechnology and material science. One notable system is the actomyosin network, composed of actin filaments and myosin motor proteins, providing a platform for constructing contractile, shape-adaptive materia...
