Three-color single molecule imaging shows WASP detachment from Arp2/3 complex triggers actin filament branch formation

During cell locomotion and endocytosis, membrane-tethered WASP proteins stimulate actin filament nucleation by the Arp2/3 complex. This process generates highly branched arrays of filaments that grow toward the membrane to which they are tethered, a conflict that seemingly would restrict filament gr...
