A node organization in the actomyosin contractile ring generates tension and aids stability

During cytokinesis, a contractile actomyosin ring constricts and divides the cell in two. How the ring marshals actomyosin forces to generate tension is not settled. Recently, a superresolution microscopy study of the fission yeast ring revealed that myosins and formins that nucleate actin filaments...
