Cytoskeletal control of surface membrane mobility.
Cytochalasin B induced redistribution of actin microfilaments into a bulge of the cytoplasm, bringing cell-surface elements to the corresponding surface area. This process was reversible, inhibited by colchicine and enhanced by antibodies to cell-surface antigens.
