Listeria motility: biophysics pushes things forward.
Recent studies have provided important new insights into the forces exerted by actin polymerization during Listeria motility. The results also expose deficiencies in our understanding of this process, and suggest future directions for complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved.
