The effect of filament shortening on the mechanical properties of gel-filtered actin

To address the claim that filaments polymerized from highly purified (gel-filtered) F-actin acquire the elastic properties of a solid attributable to chemical cross-linking, we measured the rheologic spectrum of the dynamic storage modulus, G', and loss modulus, G“ from 5 x 10(-4) to 0.5 Hz for...
