Abstract

The first part of this survey on the recent progress in the research of cytoskeletal structures was presented 1 year ago (KRISTEN: Progr. Bot. 48, 1), and dealt exclusively with microtubules. Other components of the cytoskeleton are actin filaments, intermediate or 10-nm filaments, myosin filaments and superthin filaments. All of them are microfilaments and can be distinguished by their thickness.
