The functional structure of biological cells is largely determined by the cytoskeleton, and by the motility that is driven and guided by the cytoskeleton. The accumulated empiric knowledge of the dynamics of the cytoskeleton and cytoskeleton- based motility requires theoretical analysis for systematic knowledge representation and interpretation, and also to provide a framework for the future experimental research. In this monograph, selected kinetic models of the cytoskeleton dynamics and related motility phenomena are formulated and analyzed. In each model, prominent elements of...
