Membrane-cytoskeletal crosstalk mediated by myosin-I regulates adhesion turnover during phagocytosis
Phagocytosis of pathogens is thought to proceed through the sequential engagement of Fc-receptors on the phagocyte with antibodies on the target surface. Here authors show that myosin 1e and myosin 1f link the actin cytoskeleton to the membrane and are required for efficient phagocytosis of antibody...

| Summary: | Phagocytosis of pathogens is thought to proceed through the sequential engagement of Fc-receptors on the phagocyte with antibodies on the target surface. Here authors show that myosin 1e and myosin 1f link the actin cytoskeleton to the membrane and are required for efficient phagocytosis of antibody-opsonized targets. |
