Non-muscle myosin IIB plays a major role in applying force on the nucleus to facilitate nuclear translocation through tight spaces during 3D invasive migration, while non-muscle myosin IIA is critical for generating force during active protrusion.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
