Abstract
Cells have various surface architectures, which allow them to carry out different specialized functions. Actin microfilaments that are associated with the plasma membrane are important for generating these cell-surface specializations, and also provide the driving force for remodelling cell morphology and triggering new cell behaviour when the environment is modified. This phenomenon is achieved through a tight coupling between cell structure and signal transduction, a process that is modulated by the regulation of actin-binding proteins.Mesh：
