An Orthogonal Way of Writing the Tubulin Code

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Elongator complex has long been characterized for its role in tRNA modification and modulation of protein translation. Beyond these established functions, recent findings reveal an unexpected role for Elongator in directly interacting and tuning microtubule dynamics and properties, broadening its biological significance in eukaryotic cells.

Transcription Factor Deformed Wings Is an Atg8a-Interacting Protein That Regulates Autophagy

open access: yesCells
LC3 (microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3, called Atg8 in yeast and Drosophila) is one of the most well-studied autophagy-related proteins. LC3 controls the selectivity of autophagic degradation by interacting with LIR (LC3-interacting region ...

An analysis of contractile and protrusive cell behaviors at the superficial surface of the zebrafish neural plate

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The forces underlying convergence and internalization of the teleost neural plate remain unknown. To help understand this morphogenesis, we analyzed collective and individual cell behaviors at the superficial surface of the neural plate as internalization begins to form the neural keel in the hindbrain region of the zebrafish embryo.

Loss of the epithelial transcription factor grhl3 leads to variably penetrant developmental phenotypes in zebrafish

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Environmental influence is critical for embryogenesis but is significantly under‐appreciated under lab conditions, which are not typically designed to robustly test environmental variability. Here, we report environmental effects on the developmental phenotype of zebrafish lacking the transcription factor Grainyhead‐like 3 (grhl3 ...

β‐Catenin localization in the ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi suggests an ancestral role in cell adhesion and nuclear function

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The emergence of multicellularity in animals marks a pivotal evolutionary event, which was likely enabled by molecular innovations in the way cells adhere and communicate with one another. β‐Catenin is significant to this transition due to its dual role as both a structural component in the cadherin–catenin complex and as a ...

Protein turnover downstream of the Nipbl/CRL4 axis contributes to abnormal development in zebrafish embryos

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Mutations in cohesins cause cohesinopathies such as Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) and Roberts Syndrome (RBS). Prior findings demonstrate that Esco2 (a cohesin activator) and Smc3 (a core cohesin subunit) regulate the CRL4 E3 ubiquitin ligase. SMC3 mutations, however, account for a small percentage of CdLS.

Characterization and cloning of fasciclin I and fasciclin II glycoproteins in the grasshopper [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
Monoclonal antibodies were previously used to identify two glycoproteins, called fasciclin I and II (70 and 95 kDa, respectively), which are expressed on different subsets of axon fascicles in the grasshopper (Schistocerca americana) embryo.
