| Method |
"To investigate the dynamic behavior of CR-actin in stress fibres, the rate of polymer turnover was measured by activating a small region of a living injected cell and measuring total fluorescence in the stress fibres over time (fig 2c-f)." |
| Comments |
"The half-life of CR-actin in stress fibres was 3.8 min (s.d.=1, n=14). The half-time of turnover of individual stress fibres in a given cell varied as much as twofold." |
