How Actin... acts

Actin is one of three groups of proteins that help cells maintain their structure and integrity. Now, we have an idea of how the Golgi Apparatus’ structure is maintained through actin interactions.

I have chosen three different facts to give this month based on research papers in cellular biology, immunology, or microbiology. One of those three papers will be reviewed in a blog post by the end of the month. If you have a preference for which field the next review will be on, please submit a comment by the 1st of the month stating which field you'd like me to review a paper from! I am also accepting paper submissions for my fun facts as long as they are in the areas of cellular biology, microbiology, and/or immunology.

Please, leave a comment, email, or find me on Facebook and Instagram to connect, or if you need tutoring! @cellsmicrobesimmunity

Remember to take breaks for inspiration and step back from the books and your research to look at the awe and beauty of life sciences and their functions. See beauty everywhere!
