Moesin orchestrates the reorganisation of the actin cortex and shape changes during mitotic progression in an epithelium

Animal cells endure dramatic actin-dependent changes in shape as they progress through mitosis – they round up at mitotic entry, elongate at anaphase and split into two at cytokinesis. In this thesis I explore the role of Moesin, an actin-membrane crosslinker and the sole ERM protein expressed in Dr...
