Ring-opening metathesis polymerization-induced self-assembly (ROMPISA)
Chemical Communications, 2019 Ring-opening metathesis polymerization-induced self-assembly (ROMPISA) has expanded the preparation of PISA nano-objects beyond radical polymerization approaches. In this highlight article, we summarize current advances and existing challenges in ROMPISA methodologies.

Arabidopsis kinetochore fiber-associated MAP65-4 cross-links microtubules and promotes microtubule bundle elongation [PDF]
, 2010 The acentrosomal plant mitotic spindle is uniquely structured in that it lacks opposing centrosomes at its poles and is equipped with a connective preprophase band that regulates the spatial framework for spindle orientation and mobility.

Sensor potency of the moonlighting enzyme-decorated cytoskeleton [PDF]
, 2013 Background: There is extensive evidence for the interaction of metabolic enzymes with the eukaryotic cytoskeleton. The significance of these interactions is far from clear.

Templated PISA: Driving Polymerization‐Induced Self‐Assembly towards Fibre Morphology [PDF]
Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2018 AbstractDispersions of block copolymer fibres in water have many potential applications and can be obtained by polymerization‐induced self‐assembly (PISA), but only under very restricted experimental conditions. In order to enlarge this experimental window, we introduced a supramolecular moiety, a hydrogen‐bonded bis‐urea sticker, in the macromolecular

Shape Changes of Self-Assembled Actin Bilayer Composite Membranes
, 1997 We report the self-assembly of thin actin shells beneath the membranes of giant vesicles. Ion-carrier mediated influx of Mg2+ induces actin polymerization in the initially spherical vesicles.

A pharmacological cocktail for arresting actin dynamics in living cells. [PDF]
, 2011 The actin cytoskeleton is regulated by factors that influence polymer assembly, disassembly, and network rearrangement. Drugs that inhibit these events have been used to test the role of actin dynamics in a wide range of cellular processes.
