Patches of branched actin are present at the base of banchlets. (Related to Fig. 4)
Movie obtained from the 3D reconstruction of EM tomograms of the sample shown in Fig. 6. Points of branched actin filaments are highlighted with red circles. In the schematic, microtubules are highlighted in violet and actin filaments in green. Each identified point of branched actin is shown with a red dot. Patches of branched actin are clearly localized at the branching point.
