Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Thumbnail strain during pressing and plucking of a string
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2015 Human fingernails play an important role in daily life and while playing instruments. We previously showed that the strain generated at the radial and ulnar parts of the nail was asymmetric when the thumb pad was pressed down on a flat surface.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Cooperative activities of forearm muscles under loading applied to thumb or each finger
Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2018 Human thumb and fingers are usually subjected to an external loading during daily activity. The information of how muscles in the forearm cooperate with each other in order to response to the external loading is still unknown.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Plasma membranes contain dynamic nanoscale domains that organize lipids and receptors. Because viruses operate at similar scales, this architecture shapes early infection steps, including attachment, receptor engagement, and entry. Using influenza A virus and HIV‐1 as examples, we highlight how receptor nanoclusters, multivalent glycan interactions ...
