Collision of Expanding Actin Caps with Actomyosin Borders for Cortical Bending and Mitotic Rounding in a Syncytium
Dev Cell. 2018 Jun 4;45(5):551-564.e4. doi: 10.1016/j.devcel.2018.04.024. Epub 2018 May 24.

Highlights
An embryo-wide actomyosin network becomes embedded with circular Arp2/3 domain
The Arp2/3 actin caps engage their actomyosin borders for mitotic rounding
Each growing actin cap collides with its border and buckles to form furrows
Contraction of the embryo-wide myosin network generates forces that swell the caps
