Epithelial cells transmit contractile force with adherens junctions to mediate morphological changes like the extrusion of apoptotic cells. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Michael and colleagues (2016) show that the actin binding protein Coronin plays a critical role in actin cytoskeleton reorganization and association with junctions to promote contractility.
