May implicate myosin B in growth cone retraction; hypothesis-generating for cytoskeletal roles in neurite dynamics, pending in vivo validation.
Myosin heavy chain B is prominently localized in growth cones, suggesting a key role in generating tension or bundling actin filaments during neurite growth and turning.
Rochlin et al. (1995) studied this question.
