α-Actinin-4/FSGS1 is required for Arp2/3-dependent actin assembly at the adherens junction
We have developed an in vitro assay to study actin assembly at cadherin-enriched cell junctions. Using this assay, we demonstrate that cadherin-enriched junctions can polymerize new actin filaments but cannot capture preexisting filaments, suggesting a mechanism involving de novo synthesis. In agree...
