On the Crawling of Animal Cells
Abstract
Cells crawl in response to external stimuli by extending and remodeling peripheral elastic lamellae in the direction of locomotion. The remodeling requires vectorial assembly of actin subunits into linear polymers at the lamella's leading edge and the crosslinking of the filaments by bifunctional gelation proteins. The disassembly of the crosslinked filaments into short fragments or monomeric subunits away from the leading edge supplies components for the actin assembly reactions that drive protrusion. Cellular proteins that respond to lipid and ionic signals elicited by sensory cues escort actin through this cycle in which filaments are assembled, crosslinked, and disassembled. One class of myosin molecules may contribute to crawling by guiding sensory receptors to the cell surface, and another class may contribute by imposing contractile forces on actin networks in the lamellae.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
