Actomyosin drives cancer cell nuclear dysmorphia and threatens genome stability
Recent findings suggest that forces acting on the cell nucleus can cause DNA damage, but the mechanisms are unclear. Here Takakiet al. report that actomyosin is a determinant of nuclear shape and that unrestrained contractility elicits nuclear envelope rupture and genome instability in cancer cells.
