Connecting two arrays: The emerging role of actin-microtubule cross-linking motor proteins

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
The cytoskeleton of plant cells, consisting of actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs), is a central structure for various intracellular processes, such as cell division, isotropic and polar growth, vesicle transport, cell shape and morphogenesis ...

Nonlinear amplitude dynamics in flagellar beating [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2017
The physical basis of flagellar and ciliary beating is a major problem in biology which is still far from completely understood. The fundamental cytoskeleton structure of cilia and flagella is the axoneme, a cylindrical array of microtubule doublets ...

A compendium of extracellular vesicle biogenesis inhibitors: From bench to bedside

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review explores a decade of research on extracellular vesicles (EVs), detailing their biogenesis and roles in health and disease. It emphasizes EVs' relevance for potential medical applications covering various conditions such as cancer, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and infectious diseases, bridging experimental findings with clinical ...

Lissencephaly-1 is a context-dependent regulator of the human dynein complex

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The cytoplasmic dynein-1 (dynein) motor plays a central role in microtubule organisation and cargo transport. These functions are spatially regulated by association of dynein and its accessory complex dynactin with dynamic microtubule plus ends. Here, we

The role of the notochord and the function of dyneins in the molecular left-right-differentiation of mammals

open access: yes, 2017
Left-right-differentiation is conserved in all vertebrates, also is the orientation of internal organs defined to either the left or the right side and the viscera are rotated in a certain direction.

Alpha‐Synuclein Promotes Anterograde Vesicle Transport in Melanocytes and Melanoma Cells: A Pro‐Survival Function

open access: yesJournal of the Chinese Chemical Society, EarlyView.
Model for how α‐syn modulates the positioning of endolysosomes in melanoma cells. (a) α‐syn tethers endolysosomes to the plasma membrane, a last step in anterograde transport. (b) Loss of α‐syn expression causes the loss of the tethering function, which leads to perinuclear vesicle clustering. Reproduced from the open access article.

The LC7 light chains of Chlamydomonas flagellar dyneins interact with components required for both motor assembly and regulation

open access: yes, 2004
Members of the LC7/Roadblock family of light chains (LCs) have been found in both cytoplasmic and axonemal dyneins. LC7a was originally identified within Chlamydomonas outer arm dynein and associates with this motor’s cargo-binding region.

Force-Generating Mechanism of Axonemal Dynein in Solo and Ensemble

open access: yes, 2020
In eukaryotic cilia and flagella, various types of axonemal dyneins orchestrate their distinct functions to generate oscillatory bending of axonemes.

Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Proteomic Characterization of AS1411 Reveals ATP6AP1 as a Mediator of Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Progression

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive subtype of breast cancer characterized by high metastatic potential, poor prognosis, and limited effective therapeutic options. In this study, we investigated the molecular mechanisms underlying the anticancer effects of the nucleolin (NCL)‐targeting DNA aptamer AS1411 using label‐free ...
