• Top/Science/Biology/Biophysics

• - Research on actin-related proteins and their dynamics in muscle function. Includes sequences, pyrene fluorescence assay, abstracts and researchers in the Arp field, from the University of Birmigham, England.
  
• - Resource on contractile system proteins, muscle contraction, movement in non-muscle cells and in prokaryotes, related database links, mainatined by the Department of Biomedical Engineering, University of Virginia.
  
• - description of how leukocytes recirculate and emigrate into lymphatic tissue for effective immune responses. Many nice images of the cells and tissues of the immune system.
  
• - Slide show to accompany graduate-level lectures by Gwen V. Childs, at Little Rock, AR.
  
• - Applet for study of filament structure built from subunits. Includes principles, electron micrographs, tutorial, and authors' contacts at the Structural Biochemistry Group, Edinburgh, UK. .
  
• - Dissecting the machine that drives muscle contraction. Approach: making mutants, studying their properties, finding second mutants that restore function to defective motors.
  
• - Overview of research on myosin and actin, the role of calmodulin, the dynein-dynactin interaction. Includes PDF downloads of publications, and details of Cytoskeleton Journal Club, at the Northwestern University Medical School Chicago, IL.
  
• - Muscle biology resources (Brandeis University).
  
• - Resources devoted to the kinesin family of microtubule-dependent molecular motors.
  
• - A basic tutorial on the involvement of the cytoskeleton in cell locomotion.
  
• - Research in adhesion, cytoskeletal organization, and gene expression, with methods, staff, publications, collaborations, related links and login. Includes course modules in molecular, cellular and developmental biology, at the University of Colorado, Boul
  
• - Resources devoted to myosin and muscle biology (MRC-LMB, Cambridge).
  
• - Searchable resource of research citations, relating to cilia, available online or for download. Includes feedback and breaking news.
  
• - Research on motility through cross-disciplinary research in structural biology. Includes Chicago Cytoskeleton links, profiles of team members, postdoctoral opportunities, job openings at Perdue University, West Lafayette, IN.
  
• - Information on cytoskeletal proteins and methods (from the company Cytoskeleton, Inc.).
  
• - Group primarily concerned with flagellar assembly in Chlamydomonas, and applications of green fluorescent protein labeling. Includes publications, links to researchers and their projects at Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut.
