Building the actin cytoskeleton: filopodia contribute to the construction of contractile bundles in the lamella

Filopodia are rodlike extensions generally attributed with a guidance role in cell migration. We now show in fish fibroblasts that filopodia play a major role in generating contractile bundles in the lamella region behind the migrating front. Filopodia that developed adhesion to the substrate via pa...
