The usherin mutation c.2299delG leads to its mislocalization and disrupts interactions with whirlin and VLGR1

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
The c.2299delG mutation in usherin causes loss of hearing and vision. Here, the authors show in a mouse model of this disease that the expression of mutant usherin leads to retinitis pigmentosa and structural defects in the photoreceptor cilium ...

Perisaccadic perceptual mislocalization is different for upward saccades [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurophysiology, 2017
Saccadic eye movements, which dramatically alter retinal images, are associated with robust perimovement perceptual alterations. Such alterations, thought to reflect brain mechanisms for maintaining perceptual stability in the face of saccade-induced retinal image disruptions, are often studied by asking subjects to localize brief stimuli presented ...

Making Two out of One: Kinesin Motors Driving Plant Cell Division

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Kinesin superfamily of microtubule dependent motors is present in all eukaryotes. Not all of the subfamilies are represented in all kingdoms, and the ones that are do not always show conserved functions. Tight control of the cytoskeleton is essential for proper progression and completion of mitosis and cytokinesis, and key functions are ...

Illusory motion and mislocalization of temporally offset target in apparent motion display

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2013
When a visual target briefly appears in a display containing visual motion information, the perceived position of the target is mislocalized forward along its direction of motion.

VKORC1 ER mislocalization causes rare disease

open access: yesBlood, 2014
In this issue of Blood , Czogalla et al identify that the rare heritable hemorrhaging disease, vitamin K–dependent clotting factor deficiency type 2 (VKCFD2), is caused by mislocalization of vitamin K epoxide reductase (VKORC1) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).[1][1] ![Figure][2 ...

The Influence of Drosophila Spire and Myosin V During Mid‐Oogenesis Is Independent of Their Direct Interaction

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cooperativity between cytoskeletal proteins is crucial for spatiotemporal coordination in biological processes, like oogenesis. In mammalian and Drosophila oogenesis, proper assembly and function of actin networks require coordination between actin assembly factors Spire and formins, as well as actin‐associated proteins like myosins and Rab ...

Mislocalization of the exitatory amino-acid transporters (EAATs) in human astrocytoma and non-astrocytoma cancer cells: effect of the cell confluence

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2012
Background Astrocytomas are cancers of the brain in which high levels of extracellular glutamate plays a critical role in tumor growth and resistance to conventional treatments.

Neuronal RNA‐binding protein dysfunction in multiple sclerosis cortex

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020
Objective Neurodegeneration is thought to be the primary cause of neurological disability in multiple sclerosis (MS). Dysfunctional RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) including their mislocalization from nucleus to cytoplasm, stress granule formation, and ...

Neurodegeneration in SCA14 is associated with increased PKCγ kinase activity, mislocalization and aggregation

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications, 2018
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 14 (SCA14) is a subtype of the autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias that is characterized by slowly progressive cerebellar dysfunction and neurodegeneration.

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...
