Cellular actin networks grow by ATP-actin addition at filament barbed ends and have long been presumed to depolymerize at their pointed ends, primarily after filaments undergo "aging" (ATP hydrolysis and Pi release). The cytosol contains high levels of actin monomers, which favors assembly over disassembly, and barbed ends are enriched in ADP-Pi actin. For these reasons, the potential for a barbed end depolymerization mechanism in cells has received little attention. Here, using microfluidics-assisted TIRF microscopy, we sh
