Syntaphilin controls a mitochondrial rheostat for proliferation-motility decisions in cancer. [PDF]
Tumors adapt to an unfavorable microenvironment by controlling the balance between cell proliferation and cell motility, but the regulators of this process are largely unknown.

Fixation eye movement abnormalities and stereopsis recovery following strabismus repair
We evaluated the effects of strabismus repair on fixational eye movements (FEMs) and stereopsis recovery in patients with fusion maldevelopment nystagmus (FMN) and patients without nystagmus.

Invasion fronts with variable motility: phenotype selection, spatial sorting and wave acceleration [PDF]
Invasion fronts in ecology are well studied but very few mathematical results concern the case with variable motility (possibly due to mutations). Based on an apparently simple reaction-diffusion equation, we explain the observed phenomena of front ...

Nucleotide-free structures of KIF20A illuminate atypical mechanochemistry in this kinesin-6
KIF20A is a critical kinesin for cell division and a promising anti-cancer drug target. The mechanisms underlying its cellular roles remain elusive. Interestingly, unusual coupling between the nucleotide- and microtubule-binding sites of this kinesin-6 ...

Phospholipid directed motility of surface‐motile bacteria [PDF]
Summary Myxococcus xanthus is a surface‐motile bacterium that has adapted at least one chemosensory system to allow directed movement towards the slowly diffusible lipid phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). The Dif chemosensory pathway is remarkable because it has at least three inputs coupled to outputs that control extracellular matrix (ECM) production and
