Actin turnover ensures uniform tension distribution during cytokinetic actomyosin ring contraction

In many eukaryotes, cytokinesis is facilitated by the contraction of an actomyosin ring (AMR). The exact mechanisms that lead to this contractility are unknown, although some models posit that actin turnover in the AMR is essential. The effect of reduced actin dynamics during AMR formation has been...
