... to facilitate segregation of half of its chromosomal content into the diminutive first polar body. Recent investigations have documented crucial roles for filamentous actin (F-actin) in meiotic spindle translocation. However, the identity of the upstream regulators responsible for these carefully orchestrated...

... translocation of MARCKS as well as myoblast fusion. To determine whether the MARCKS translocation during myogenesis is correlated with its capability of crosslinking filamentous actin, the same cells were also stained using pallotoxin, a selective ligand of filamentous actin but not of the globular form...
