High impact information on myoF

  • Clones corresponding to four of these additional loci (myoF, myoH-J) were obtained by using the isolated yeast artificial chromosomes as templates in a PCR employing degenerate primers specific for conserved regions of the myosin head [1].
  • The role of the actin cortex, the microtubule (MT) aster and their crosstalk is explored by comparing the behaviour of wild-type cells, myosin II null mutants, latrunculin A and benomyl treated cells [2].
