“…At junctions, filaminA and filaminB are known to fine tune activation of RhoA and Rac1 via binding to the GEF Trio or the GAP FilGAP, respectively [38,41]. Furthermore, F-actin bundles may be stabilised by a number of different myosins that co-localise with cadherins and are functionally important for junction maintenance [15,42,43]. Yet, in some epithelia, contractile markers such as phosphorylated Myosin Light Chain (pMLC) are not highly enriched at junctional actin, particularly when peripheral thin bundles are clearly separable (Fig.1d).…”
