our first serious attempt to understand F-actin (F standing for filamentous, among other things) in Aspergillus nidulans: www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
The actin module of endocytic internalization in Aspergillus nidulans: a critical role of the WISH/DIP/SPIN90 family protein Dip1
Using FPs fused with actin or its fiduciary probes Lifeact, Chromobody and Tractin, we studied, by time-resolved microscopy, the actin module of endocytosis in Aspergillus nidulans. F-actin probes eff...
