FERMing up the plasma membrane.

Amanda Neisch1, Richard G Fehon.   

Abstract

As cells enter mitosis, shape changes occur that involve rearrangements of the actin cytoskeleton and an increase in cortical stiffness. In a recent article in Current Biology, Kunda et al. describe a new role for ERM proteins in regulating rearrangements of the cortical cytoskeleton during mitosis.
