Mechanics and regulation of cytokinetic abscission
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Cytokinetic abscission leads to the physical cut of the intercellular bridge (ICB) connecting the daughter cells and concludes cell division. In different animal cells, it is well established that the ESCRT-III machinery is responsible for the ...

LRRC45 Is a Centrosome Linker Component Required for Centrosome Cohesion
Cell Reports, 2013 During interphase, centrosomes are connected by a proteinaceous linker between the proximal ends of the centrioles, which is important for the centrosomes to function as a single microtubule-organizing center.

Oxidation and reduction of actin: Origin, impact in vitro and functional consequences in vivo
European Journal of Cell Biology, 2022 Actin is among the most abundant proteins in eukaryotic cells and assembles into dynamic filamentous networks regulated by many actin binding proteins. The actin cytoskeleton must be finely tuned, both in space and time, to fulfill key cellular functions

Nature Communications, 2020 ESCRT filaments drive the final abscission between two daughter cells but how they physically interact with the membrane is unclear. Using proteomics, the authors show that syndecan-4/syntenin/ALIX couples the ESCRT machinery to the abscission site and ...

Biophysics in Membrane of Cells
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2023 The membrane of a cell, often compared to a dynamic city border, carries out an intricate dance of controlling entry and exit, guarding the valuable life processes occurring inside [...]

Line tension at lipid phase boundaries as driving force for HIV fusion peptide-mediated fusion
Nature Communications, 2016 HIV preferentially fuses with lipid membranes at the interface between ordered and disordered domains, but the mechanistic basis for this observation is not known. Here Yang et al.
