Abstract
A recent application of optical tweeters has shown that plasma membrane pho
sphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) levels control adhesion of the me
mbrane bilayer to the underlying cytoskeleton, by regulated direct binding
of PIP2 to cytoskeletal proteins and/or indirect effects on cytoskeleton st
ructure.
