Description:
Article Rho kinases regulate the actin cytoskeleton by controlling stress fibre formation. Truebestein et al. show that the length of its coiled-coil determines ROCK2 function, and propose that the coiled coil acts as a spacer, targeting kinase activity to a discrete distance from the membrane.
