DISC1 regulates cell–cell adhesion, cell–matrix adhesion and neurite outgrowth [PDF]
Molecular Psychiatry, 2010 Disrupted-in-schizophrenia 1 (DISC1) is a promising susceptibility gene for major mental illness. Recent studies have implicated DISC1 in key neurodevelopmental processes, including neurite outgrowth, neuronal migration and proliferation. Here, we report that DISC1 regulates cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion and neurite outgrowth. DISC1 overexpression

FAK Structure and Regulation by Membrane Interactions and Force in Focal Adhesions
Biomolecules, 2020 Focal adhesion kinase (FAK) is a non-receptor tyrosine kinase with key roles in the regulation of cell adhesion migration, proliferation and survival. In cancer FAK is a major driver of invasion and metastasis and its upregulation is associated with poor

Loss of contact inhibition of locomotion in the absence of JAM-A promotes entotic cell engulfment
iScience, 2022 Summary: Entosis is a cell competition process during which tumor cells engulf other tumor cells. It is initiated by metabolic stress or by loss of matrix adhesion, and it provides the winning cell with resources derived from the internalized cell. Using

Membrane recruitment of the polarity protein Scribble by the cell adhesion receptor TMIGD1
Communications Biology, 2023 Scribble (Scrib) is a multidomain polarity protein and member of the leucine-rich repeat and PDZ domain (LAP) protein family. A loss of Scrib expression is associated with disturbed apical-basal polarity and tumor formation.

Structural basis for interdomain communication in SHIP2 providing high phosphatase activity
eLife, 2017 SH2-containing-inositol-5-phosphatases (SHIPs) dephosphorylate the 5-phosphate of phosphatidylinositol-3,4,5-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) and play important roles in regulating the PI3K/Akt pathway in physiology and disease.
