ABSTRACT Post‐translational modifications (PTMs) to tubulin subunits in microtubule filaments are thought to comprise a component of the tubulin code that specifies microtubule functions in cell physiology and animal development. Acetylation of Lysine‐40 (K40) on α‐tubulin (αTub‐K40ac) and glutamylation of both α‐ and β‐tubulin are two tubulin PTMs of ...

Assembly and Maintenance of Myofibrils in the Heart
ABSTRACT The assembly of actin and myosin to the paracrystalline arrangement of myofibrils in striated muscle, that is, heart and skeletal, has puzzled many a cell biologist. Different models, based on cultured cardiomyocytes, were proposed for the last 30 years to explain the sequence of events.

Hyperactive KIF5A in Neurodegeneration
ABSTRACT The highly polarised morphology of neurons and the sheer length of their axons make transport of cargoes throughout the cell a formidable task. Decades of evidence obtained from genetic studies on patients and animal models highlight deficits in axonal transport as a recurrent cause, or early contributing factor, in a plethora of ...

KIF1A‐Mediated Axonal Transport of Netrin‐1 in iPSC‐Derived Human Forebrain Neurons
ABSTRACT Netrin‐1 is a secreted laminin‐like protein that functions as a guidance cue for axon pathfinding in development. Netrin‐1 also modulates synapse formation in developing neurons and long‐term potentiation in mature neurons. Netrin‐1 is expressed in human neurons; however, its intracellular distribution and trafficking have not been assessed ...

Advancing Pregnancy and Pediatric Science through the NIH Transporter Elucidation Network
Human gestation is characterized by dynamic changes in maternal physiology and maturation of tissue functions before and after birth. The fetus and neonate are highly dependent upon transfer of maternal nutrients via the placenta and lactating mammary gland, which frequently involve selective membrane transporter proteins.
