The Cytoskeleton

Summary

TitleThe Cytoskeleton
DescriptionThree main components of the cytoskeleton include actin filaments (also called microfilaments), microtubules and intermediate filaments. They are distinct structural compositions that exhibit slightly different yet interdependent functions.
