Scope and Contents

Contents

Loss of actin stress fibers has been associated with cell transformation and metastasis. TGF-
β
induction of stress fibers in epithelial cells requires high molecular weight tropomyosins encoded by TPM1 and TPM2 genes. Here, we investigated the mechanism underlying the failure of TGF-
β
to induce stress fibers and inhibit cell migration...
