    ER-associated mitochondrial division links the distribution of mitochondria and mitochondrial DNA in yeast

    Andrew Murley, Laura L Lackner ... Jodi Nunnari
    Sites at which mitochondria contact the endoplasmic reticulum co-localize the replication of mitochondria and their DNA to help ensure that DNA is distributed appropriately between the newly formed organelles in cells.

    Apical targeting of the formin Diaphanous in Drosophila tubular epithelia

    Tal Rousso, Annette M Shewan ... Ben-Zion Shilo
    Synergistic interactions with PI(4,5)P2 and activated Rho1, which are enriched at the apical membrane of tubular organs, facilitate tight apical targeting of the formin Diaphanous.

    Single molecule imaging reveals a major role for diffusion in the exploration of ciliary space by signaling receptors

    Fan Ye, David K Breslow ... Maxence V Nachury
    Membrane receptor proteins move through primary cilia largely by passive diffusion rather than by active intraflagellar transport.

    Mechanism of synergistic activation of Arp2/3 complex by cortactin and N-WASP

    Luke A Helgeson, Brad J Nolen
    Single-molecule TIRF microscopy, biochemical assays and mathematical modeling demonstrate how actin-branch nucleation by the Arp2/3 complex is coordinately regulated by two biochemically distinct activators.

    Intrinsic disorder within an AKAP-protein kinase A complex guides local substrate phosphorylation

    F Donelson Smith, Steve L Reichow ... Tamir Gonen
    Structural analysis of an AKAP18-protein kinase A complex reveals that regions of intrinsic disorder impact the phosphorylation of preferred substrates.

    Cytoplasmic translocation of the retinoblastoma protein disrupts sarcomeric organization

    Keigo Araki, Keiko Kawauchi ... Yoichi Taya
    TNF-α treatment induces phosphorylation and cytoplasmic translocation of the retinoblastoma protein, which regulates cytoskeletal organization in skeletal muscle cells.

    Frizzled3 controls axonal development in distinct populations of cranial and spinal motor neurons

    Zhong L Hua, Philip M Smallwood, Jeremy Nathans
    The signaling molecule Frizzled3 plays a part in the development of the nervous system by controlling the ability of motor neurons to form connections with distant target muscles.

    The Caenorhabditis elegans microtubule minus-end binding homolog PTRN-1 stabilizes synapses and neurites

    Jana Dorfman Marcette, Jessica Jie Chen, Michael L Nonet
    The minus-ends of microtubules have been implicated as part of a damage sensor to initiate remodeling of nerve cells.

    A proteomic chronology of gene expression through the cell cycle in human myeloid leukemia cells

    Tony Ly, Yasmeen Ahmad ... Angus I Lamond
    Quantitative analysis of protein and mRNA expression across a minimally perturbed cell cycle in human myeloid cells has identified myeloid-specific and cell cycle-regulated gene expression, including examples of isoform- and phosphorylation-specific regulation, with all data made available in a searchable, online database.

    A high-resolution morphological and ultrastructural map of anterior sensory cilia and glia in Caenorhabditis elegans

    David B Doroquez, Cristina Berciu ... Daniela Nicastro
    The three-dimensional structures of 50 sensory cilia present in the head of the adult C. elegans hermaphrodite have been reconstructed to provide a foundation for investigations into the mechanisms by which the diversity of cilia structures is generated and how this structural diversity is related to specific sensory neuron functions.
