Periodic Reporting for period 4 - ACTOMYOSIN RING (Understanding Cytokinetic Actomyosin Ring Assembly Through Genetic Code Expansion, Click Chemistry, DNA origami, and in vitro Reconstitution)

Summary
Cell division requires a machine that generates force that can bisect a cell into two daughters. In many organisms, including human, this process is achieved by a machine composed of proteins such as actin and myosin, both of which are key to force generation in the muscle...
