Excitable behavior in amoeboid chemotaxis

Excitable behavior in amoeboid chemotaxis

Chemotaxis, the directed motion of cells in response to chemical gradients, is a fundamental process. Eukaryotic cells detect spatial differences in chemoattractant receptor occupancy with high precision and use these differences to bias the location of actin‐rich protrusions to guide their movement. Research into chemotaxis has benefitted greatly from a …
