Subcellular context-specific tuning of actomyosin ring contractility within a common cytoplasm

John B. Linehan, A. V. Zampetaki, Michael Edward Werner, Bryan W. Heck, Paul S. Maddox, Sebastian Fürthauer, Amy Shaub Maddox

The paper investigates how actomyosin rings generate contractile force in different cellular contexts using a physical model to show that component abundance and distribution tune force magnitude while preserving conserved mechanics.
