Actomyosin Cortical Mechanical Properties in Nonadherent Cells Determined by Atomic Force Microscopy

The organization of filamentous actin and myosin II molecular motor contractility is known to modify the mechanical properties of the cell cortical actomyosin cytoskeleton. Here we describe a novel method, to our knowledge, for using force spectroscopy approach curves with tipless cantilevers to det...
