THIS ARTICLE IS BASED IN PART ON A ROUGH TRANSLATION FROM GERMAN[edit]

Jeez, sombody with deep patience please edit the Assembly-paragraph. Orimlig 15:59, 15 January 2007 (UTC) ...and 'Adhesion dynamics with migrating cells'. Can Germans please stick to editing German wikipedia if their English typing is short of readable? Orimlig 16:02, 15 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Pictures[edit]

Would not the following picture from the GERMAN WIKI qualify much better to explain what a focal adhesion than the very complicated diagram of protein interactions? (that is also not free content) --hroest 18:53, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, It qualifies as fair use I believe... but I do like the picture you supplied... surely we can use both??? Bassophile 11:23, 19 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Immunofluorescence coloration of actin (green) and the focal adhesion protein vinculin (red) in a fibroblast. Focal adhesion are visible as red dots at the end of the green bundles.

Assessment comment[edit]

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Focal adhesion/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.

I would chose another picture, the one chosen is for a graduate textbook and not for an encyclopedia imho. Look at the discussion site for the picture I suggest (the one from the german wiki). --hroest 18:57, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
