Current models for the action of linear biological motors may be grouped in two main categories. The conventional "bind and bend" models rely for their power stroke upon a structural change in the myosin headgroup (S1 fragment) which follows the binding of myosin to the F-actin filament. The more re

## Abstract Impaired function of shoulder muscles, resulting from rotator cuff tears, is associated with abnormal deposition of fat in muscle tissue, but corresponding cellular and molecular mechanisms, likely reflected by altered gene expression profiles, are largely unknown. Here, an analysis of
Cell crawling is an important biological phenomenon because it underlies coordinated cell movement in morphogenesis, cancer and wound healing. This phenomenon is based on protrusion at the cell's leading edge, retraction at the rear, contraction and graded adhesion powered by the dynamics of actin a
