Cytoskeletal proteins and mechanics. Representative dimensions and structures of F-actin (a), intermediate filaments (b), and microtubules (c), inspired by Pegoraro et al. [35]; “\(L_p\)” denotes persistence length. d Mechanical properties of reconstituted microtubule, vimentin intermediate filament, and F-actin networks, based on strain response under applied shear stress. “X” denotes mechanical rupture of network. Replotted from Janmey et al. [40]
