Membrane oscillations driven by Arp2/3 constrict the intercellular bridge during neural stem cell divisions

Bryce LaFoya, Michelle N. Ortman, Adam C. Fries, Brad J. Nolen, Kenneth E. Prehoda

The paper shows that Arp2/3-driven membrane oscillations are essential for constricting intercellular bridges during Drosophila neural stem cell divisions when tension cannot be generated through migration.
