Organelle remodeling at membrane contact sites [PDF]
Journal of Structural Biology, 2016 Cellular organelles must execute sophisticated biological processes to persist, and often communicate with one another to exchange metabolites and information. Recent studies suggest inter-organelle membrane contact sites (MCSs) are hubs for this cellular cross-talk.

Endomembrane remodeling in autophagic membrane formation [PDF]
Autophagy, 2018 Autophagosomal membrane sources generate autophagic membrane precursors, which later assemble into the double-membrane autophagosome. The key events happening on the membrane sources during autophagic membrane generation remain poorly characterized.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Newly identified NO-sensor guanylyl cyclase/connexin 43 association is involved in cardiac electrical function [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Guanylyl cyclase, a heme-containing alpha 1 beta 1 heterodimer (GC1), produces cGMP in response to Nitric oxide (NO) stimulation. The NO-GC1-cGMP pathway negatively regulates cardiomyocyte contractility and protects against cardiac ...
