The NLS3 Motif in TPX2 Regulates Spindle Architecture in Xenopus Egg Extracts
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A bipolar spindle composed of microtubules and many associated proteins functions to segregate chromosomes during cell division in all eukaryotes, yet both spindle size and architecture vary dramatically across different species and cell types.

Synthetic Thermo‐Sensitive Hydrogel Microspheres as Temperature Probes in an Optical Tweezers Setup
Chemistry–Methods, EarlyView.We demonstrate the use of thermo‐sensitive poly‐NIPAAm microspheres as temperature probes to quantify the heating induced by a high‐power optical tweezers laser. The probes can estimate the temperature with an accuracy of 1–2 °C in the biologically relevant range and can be easily incorporated within biological optical tweezers assays to help avoid ...

Analytical Study of Lanolin as Potential Biomarker of Prehistoric Sheep‐Shearing Practice
Chemistry–Methods, EarlyView.Lanolin, a complex wax found on sheep wool, accumulates on shearing tools, such as flint and obsidian blades, used since the Neolithic. This study explores lanolin's degradation patterns as a potential biomarker for prehistoric sheep‐shearing practices, employing micro‐Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, and gas ...
