Localization and intracellular motility of myosin IIA (MIIA) in protrusive regions of migrating CHO.K1 cells. Arrowheads point to locations where representative MIIA filaments form. This Video corresponds to Fig. 6 A and video 3 in JCB 183:543-554 , 2008. Images of GFP-MIIA were collected every 4 s using TIRF microscopy. Images were acquired in an inverted microscope (model IX70;Olympus) with 488 nm excitation. A dichroic mirror (HQ485/30) was used for GFP-labeled cells. Images were acquired with a charge-coupled device camera (Retiga Exi; Qimaging) and analyzed using MetaMorph software (MDS Analytical Technologies). 10 frames/s shown.
