Hydrostatic Pressure Shows That Lamellipodial Motility in Ascaris Sperm Requires Membrane-associated Major Sperm Protein Filament Nucleation and Elongation

Sperm from nematodes use a major sperm protein (MSP) cytoskeleton in place of an actin cytoskeleton to drive their ameboid locomotion. Motility is coupled to the assembly of MSP fibers near the leading edge of the pseudopod plasma membrane. This unique motility system has been reconstituted in vitro...
