Design principles of the ESCRT-III Vps24-Vps2 module [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2021
ESCRT-III polymerization is required for all endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-dependent events in the cell. However, the relative contributions of the eight ESCRT-III subunits differ between each process.

Methylation of ESCRT-III components regulates the timing of cytokinetic abscission [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Abscission is the final stage of cytokinesis, which cleaves the intercellular bridge (ICB) connecting two daughter cells. Abscission requires tight control of the recruitment and polymerization of the Endosomal Protein Complex Required for Transport-III (

Modelling membrane reshaping by staged polymerization of ESCRT-III filaments. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2022
ESCRT-III filaments are composite cytoskeletal polymers that can constrict and cut cell membranes from the inside of the membrane neck. Membrane-bound ESCRT-III filaments undergo a series of dramatic composition and geometry changes in the presence of an

Electrostatic lateral interactions drive ESCRT-III heteropolymer assembly

open access: yeseLife, 2019
Self-assembly of ESCRT-III complex is a critical step in all ESCRT-dependent events. ESCRT-III hetero-polymers adopt variable architectures, but the mechanisms of inter-subunit recognition in these hetero-polymers to create flexible architectures remain ...

VPS4B orchestrates response to nuclear envelope stress by regulating ESCRT-III dynamics in glioblastoma [PDF]

open access: yesNucleus
The Nuclear envelope (NE) is frequently challenged by mechanical stimuli involving cells passing through a tight space and such stress is known as “NE stress.” Various factors that cooperate to repair the NE have been identified, including endosomal ...

Vps60 initiates alternative ESCRT-III filaments. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cell Biol, 2023
Endosomal sorting complex required for transport-III (ESCRT-III) participates in essential cellular functions, from cell division to endosome maturation. The remarkable increase of its subunit diversity through evolution may have enabled the acquisition of novel functions. Here, we characterize a novel ESCRT-III copolymer initiated by Vps60.

ULK3 regulates cytokinetic abscission by phosphorylating ESCRT-III proteins [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2015
The endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) machinery mediates the physical separation between daughter cells during cytokinetic abscission.

Escrt-III [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Cell, 2002
The endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) system is essential for multivesicular body biogenesis, in which cargo sorting is coupled to the invagination and scission of intralumenal vesicles. The ESCRTs are also needed for budding of enveloped viruses including human immunodeficiency virus 1, and for membrane abscission in cytokinesis.

Physical mechanisms of ESCRT-III-driven cell division. [PDF]

open access: yesProc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2022
Significance Cell division is an essential requirement for life. Division requires mechanical forces, often exerted by protein assemblies from the cell interior, that split a single cell into two. Using coarse-grained computer simulations and live cell imaging we define a distinct cell division mechanism—based on the forces ...
