During intestinal development, apical PAR complex proteins keep apical domains and junctions continuous between cells as they divide and elongate, and ultimately build a continuous functional tube.

The polarity protein crumbs controls apical secretion and the architecture of the apical domain by modulating PI(4,5)P2 levels and the organization of apical Rab6-, Rab11-, and Rab30-dependent trafficking.

At optimal concentrations, the ciliary inhibitor Cp110 promotes ciliogenesis by localization to previously uncharacterized sites at the basal body, where it recruits ciliary adhesion complexes that mediate basal body interaction with F-actin networks.

Mechanisms that regulate RNA localization in one cell type predictably regulate RNA localization in other cell types, even if they have vastly different morphologies, implying an underlying regulatory code that cuts across specific subcellular structures.

A proper balance of planar and perpendicular balances is critical to establishing proper epidermal architecture and is mediated by the opposing activities of LGN and its enigmatic paralog AGS3.
Super-resolution microscopy reveals a highly organized compartment in the stereocilia of mechanosensory hair cells of the inner ear, which is critical for hair cell function and affected in disease.

Genome wide analysis reveals that many transcripts are localized in cells of the ovary and that the localization status of mRNAs changes over time and in different cell types.

ARHGAP18 specializes in controlling cell shape at the topmost layer of the cell membrane by regulating the interaction between the ERM protein family, RhoA signaling, and the actin cytoskeleton.
