Lat-A represents treatment of the cells with Latrunculin-A in order to disrupt F-actin polymerization.
¶Membrane tether effective viscosity was not determined at 5.68 pmol/µg protein cholesterol concentration, but its value under cholesterol depleted conditions at 6.6±0.3 pmol/µg protein was ≈2.1±0.4 pN.s/µm [13].
