Computer Simulation of Actin Polymerization in Cellular Protrusion

Motility or spontaneous motion of eukaryotic cells, such as white blood cells, has been extensively studied in the recent literature. A mechanism has been established based on polymerization of actin filaments that pushes the cell wall forwards. However, many features of this phenomenon remain incom...
