Abstract:
:Many classical biologists working in Antarctica have 'gone molecular' to study the physiological basis for life on or below the ice. Investigating the remarkable adaptations of specific cells, organelles and molecules to this extreme environment can provide new perspectives on the processes studied in conventional experimental organisms.

杂志文章abstract::Actin networks drive many essential cellular processes, including cell migration, cytokinesis and tissue morphogenesis. However, how cells organize and regulate dynamic actin networks that consist of long, unbranched actin filaments is only poorly understood. This study in mouse oocytes reveals that cells can use vesi...
