A self-organized signaling hierarchy patterns the cortex during cell repair

Cells generate dynamic patterns of Rho GTPase activation to direct the subsequent patterning of Rho GTPase effectors needed to remodel the cell cortex during processes ranging from cell division to cell repair.

Cells generate dynamic patterns of Rho GTPase activation to direct the subsequent patterning of Rho GTPase effectors needed to remodel the cell cortex during processes ranging from cell division to cell repair. To understand how such patterns arise, we used live cell imaging,…
