Mammalian telomeres and their partnership with lamins [PDF]
, 2016 Chromosome ends are complex structures, which require a panel of factors for their elongation, replication, and protection. We describe here the mechanics of mammalian telomeres, dynamics and maintainance in relation to lamins.

Contribution of septins to human platelet structure and function
iScience, 2022 Summary: Although septins have been well-studied in nucleated cells, their role in anucleate blood platelets remains obscure. Here, we elucidate the contribution of septins to human platelet structure and functionality. We show that Septin-2 and Septin-9
