Surface hydrophobicity modulates the operation of actomyosin-based dynamic nanodevices

We studied the impact of surface hydrophobicity on the motility of actin filaments moving on heavy-meromyosin (HMM)-coated surfaces. Apart from nitrocellulose (NC), which is the current standard for motility assays, all materials tested are good candidates for microfabrication: hydrophilic and hydro...
