Cross-linkers at growing microtubule ends generate forces that drive actin transport

C. Alkemade, H. Wierenga, V. A. Volkov, M. Preciado Lopez, A. Akhmanova, P. R. ten Wolde, M. Dogterom, G. H. Koenderink

This paper shows that passive cross-linkers between actin and growing microtubules generate forces that transport actin filaments, revealing a new mechanism for actin remodeling.

Frustrated binding of biopolymer crosslinkers

Y. Mulla, H. Wierenga, C. Alkemade, P. R. ten Wolde, G. H. Koenderink

The paper measures crosslinker unbinding rates in actin networks using rheology and FRAP, finding a discrepancy between the two methods and attributing it to the mechanical properties of biopolymers.
