   SSNA1 stabilizes dynamic microtubules and detects microtubule damage

   Elizabeth J Lawrence et al.

   SSNA1 is a potent microtubule stabilizer and novel sensor of microtubule damage, acting on both microtubule ends and lattices to regulate microtubule dynamics and protect microtubules against severing activity.

   Synergistic phase separation of two pathways promotes integrin clustering and nascent adhesion formation

   Lindsay B Case et al.

   Biochemical and cell biological data suggest a model of nascent integrin adhesion complex formation based on synergistic phase separation of pathways surrounding the focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and the adaptor protein p130Cas.

   Female fertility and the zona pellucida

   Paul M Wassarman, Eveline S Litscher

   The ZP is a viscoelastic ECM that provides stability for contacts between projections from the innermost cumulus cells and oocyte microvilli that pass through the ZP and form gap junctions shown to be essential for oocyte growth and follicle development.
