Coupling traction force patterns and actomyosin wave dynamics reveals mechanics of cell motion

Abstract Motile cells can use and switch between different modes of migration. Here, we use traction force microscopy and fluorescent labeling of actin and myosin to quantify and correlate traction force patterns and cytoskeletal distributions in Dictyostelium discoideum cells that move and switch b...
