BicD and MAP7 Collaborate to Activate Homodimeric Drosophila Kinesin‐1 by Complementary Mechanisms
Kinesin‐1 is auto‐inhibited and binds microtubules weakly. Binding of kinesin‐1 to the adaptor protein BicD enhances processive motion, while the microtubule‐associated protein MAP7 recruits more kinesin to the microtubule and enhances run length.

Dynamic regulation of dynein localization revealed by small molecule inhibitors of ubiquitination enzymes [PDF]
Cytoplasmic dynein is a minus-end-directed microtubule-based motor that acts at diverse subcellular sites. During mitosis, dynein localizes simultaneously to the mitotic spindle, spindle poles, kinetochores and the cell cortex.

At the nucleus of cancer: how the nuclear envelope controls tumor progression
The review is focused on exploring novel intriguing perspectives on the role of the nuclear envelope in tumor progression. Alterations of nuclear envelope proteins result in the dysregulation of cellular pathways and promote tumorigenesis, highlighting that complex regulatory mechanisms lie behind the alterations in nuclear shape in cancer, thus ...

Nitrogen Isotopic Fractionation in Interstellar Ammonia [PDF]
Using the Green Bank Telescope (GBT), we have obtained accurate measurements of the $^{14}$N/$^{15}$N isotopic ratio in ammonia in two nearby cold, dense molecular clouds, Barnard~1 and NGC 1333. The $^{14}$N/$^{15}$N ratio in Barnard~1, $334 \pm 50$ (3$\

![Figure][1] Endosomes (green) move in normal fungi (top) but stay put if Lis1 is absent (bottom). Egan et al. clarify the role of the dynein co-factor Lis1 in cargo transport. The molecular motor dynein ferries cargoes toward the minus ends of microtubules, typically toward the nucleus.

14‐3‐3ε conditional knockout mice exhibit defects in the development of the epidermis
A knockout of 14‐3‐3ε in the basal layer of the epidermis in mice leads to a decrease in proliferation and the thickness of the epidermis and decreased expression of differentiation markers. The knockout cells also show centrosome amplification, suggesting that centrosome amplification leads to decreased proliferation and subsequent thinning of the ...

Dual pathway spindle assembly increases both the speed and the fidelity of mitosis [PDF]
Roughly half of all animal somatic cell spindles assemble by the classical prophase pathway, in which the centrosomes separate ahead of nuclear envelope breakdown (NEBD).

Linking secretion and cytoskeleton in immunity– a case for Arabidopsis TGNap1
Intracellular trafficking, particularly in defense, depends on F‐actin and microtubules (MTs). Cytoskeleton‐Organelle Bridging Proteins (COBPs) link vesicles to these structures, ensuring directional transport. While the specifics of this association are unclear, TGNap1 has been identified as a crucial MT‐binding COBP for defense trafficking ...
