Caption
3D microscope image showing separation of actin isoforms in a cluster of cells. The uppermost layer (stained red) consists of gamma actin, whilst the base and edges display beta actin (green), which illustrates that gamma actin prefers to form rigid networks near the cell’s apex while beta actin preferentially forms parallel bundles with a distinct organizational pattern.
