TRiC Is a Structural Component of Mammalian Sperm Axonemes
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The TRiC chaperonin is responsible for folding ~5%–10% of the proteome in eukaryotic cells. Our recent cryo‐electron microscopy studies of axonemes from diverse mammalian cell types led to the surprising discovery that a fully assembled TRiC chaperonin is a structural component of mammalian sperm flagella, where it is tethered to the radial ...

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Cells have an intrinsic ability to rapidly respond to environmental change to regulate cell cycle progression and membrane organisation, thereby affecting cell growth and division. The actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic complex of proteins that can rapidly reorganise to change the growth pattern of a cell.

Interaction Between Actin and Microtubules During Plant Development
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The dynamic interaction between actin filaments (AFs) and microtubules (MTs) plays a crucial role in regulating key developmental and physiological processes in plant cells, particularly in the formation of specialized cell types with distinct shapes and functions, such as pollen tubes, trichomes, and leaf epidermal cells.

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.

PEK14: A Kinesin‐4 Necessary for Male‐Derived Fertility in Arabidopsis thaliana
Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Of the 61 kinesins annotated in Arabidopsis thaliana, many are still without assigned function. Here, we have screened an insertional mutant library of Arabidopsis pollen‐expressed kinesins for fertility defects. Insertional mutants for three kinesins showed a significant reduction in seed set.
