GONUTS is under stress! The website is currently experiencing long-wait times and frequent time-outs due to the record number of students, groups, and annotations related to CACAO this semester. We are currently working on increasing performance -- please accept our apologies for the technical difficulties.
You can help reduce stress on the server by:
- not reloading pages frequently - this just adds
- opening links in new windows (so you can read the old page)

def: "A dynamic, actin-rich projection extending from the surface of a migrating animal cell." [PMID:11429692, PMID:12153987, PMID:19095735]
comment: Although in some literature 'microspike' and 'filopodium' are used synonymously, in GO microspike refers to a cell projection that is distinct from a filopodium. See also 'filopodium ; GO:0030175'.
