A WAVE2–Arp2/3 actin nucleator apparatus supports junctional tension at the epithelial zonula adherens

WAVE2–Arp2/3 is a major nucleator of actin assembly at the zonula adherens and likely acts in response to junctional Rac signaling. It supports myosin II recruitment to, and tension generation at, the junction.
