Actin turnover is required for myosin-dependent mitochondrial movements in Arabidopsis root hairs.

BACKGROUND:Previous studies have shown that plant mitochondrial movements are myosin-based along actin filaments, which undergo continuous turnover by the exchange of actin subunits from existing filaments. Although earlier studies revealed that actin filament dynamics are essential for many functio...
