Buckling and rupture of actin bundles in the dynamic steady state distribution
Actin dynamics observed in the steady state actin distribution in a pulse-chase experiment (Fig. 5B). Actin bundles with homogeneous distribution of Label1 (magenta) are speckled with Label2 (green) monomers. The movie shows a 40 second time window, captured at 104 minutes after the addition of myosin. Images have been background subtracted by using a walking average over 3 frames.
