    Centriole triplet microtubules are required for stable centriole formation and inheritance in human cells

    Jennifer T Wang, Dong Kong ... Tim Stearns
    Deletion of delta-tubulin or epsilon-tubulin in human cells results in loss of centriolar triplet microtubules and defects in centriole structure and inheritance.

    Cryo-EM of dynein microtubule-binding domains shows how an axonemal dynein distorts the microtubule

    Samuel E Lacey, Shaoda He ... Andrew P Carter
    Relion was used to solve structures of microtubules decorated with dynein microtubule-binding domains revealing that an axonemal dynein distorts the microtubule cross-sectional curvature.

    Src activates retrograde membrane traffic through phosphorylation of GBF1

    Joanne Chia, Shyi-Chyi Wang ... Frederic A Bard
    Src phosphorylates GBF1, promoting binding of the Sec7 domain to Arf1 and the formation of GALNTs containing tubules emanating from the Golgi.

    Interface-acting nucleotide controls polymerization dynamics at microtubule plus- and minus-ends

    Lauren A McCormick, Joseph M Cleary ... Luke M Rice
    Comparative measurements and simulations of microtubule plus and minus end growth with mixed nucleotides demonstrate that nucleotide acts across a tubulin:tubulin interface to influence microtubule stability and dynamics.

    Partial rejuvenation of the spermatogonial stem cell niche after gender-affirming hormone therapy in trans women

    Emily Delgouffe, Samuel Madureira Silva ... Ellen Goossens
    Gender-affirming hormone therapy in trans women leads to a loss of mature characteristics in the spermatogonial stem cell niche, causes spermatogenic arrest, and triggers fibrotic processes.

    The structure of the COPII transport-vesicle coat assembled on membranes

    Giulia Zanetti, Simone Prinz ... John AG Briggs
    A structure of the complete, membrane bound, COPII coat solved by sub-tomogram averaging reveals the arrangement of all protein subunits on the membrane and suggests a mechanism for coating heterogeneously-shaped carriers.

    LUZP1, a novel regulator of primary cilia and the actin cytoskeleton, is a contributing factor in Townes-Brocks Syndrome

    Laura Bozal-Basterra, María Gonzalez-Santamarta ... Rosa Barrio
    LUZP1 is required for proper cilia and cytoskeleton formation.

    AMP-activated protein kinase fortifies epithelial tight junctions during energetic stress via its effector GIV/Girdin

    Nicolas Aznar, Arjun Patel ... Pradipta Ghosh
    An effector of AMPK is essential for the kinase and its pharmacological activators, including Metformin, to strengthen cell-cell junctions and preserve epithelial cell polarity and barrier functions in the face of energetic stress, as well as to suppress oncogenesis.

    Flattop regulates basal body docking and positioning in mono- and multiciliated cells

    Moritz Gegg, Anika Böttcher ... Heiko Lickert
    In cell types that acquire planar cell polarity, the protein Flattop regulates basal body docking and positioning.
