Membrane curvature catalyzes actin nucleation through nano-scale condensation of N-WASP-FBP17

Kexin Zhu, Xiangfu Guo, Aravind Chandrasekaran, Xinwen Miao, Padmini Rangamani, Wenting Zhao, Yansong Miao

The paper demonstrates that membrane curvature catalyzes actin nucleation through the condensation and activation of N-WASP by FBP17, revealing a curvature-guided mechanism for actin remodeling.
