    A CDK1 phosphorylation site on Drosophila PAR-3 regulates neuroblast polarisation and sensory organ formation

    Nicolas Loyer, Elizabeth KJ Hogg ... Jens Januschke
    PAR-3/Baz function is regulated by CDK1 in asymmetrically dividing cells in the central and peripheral nervous system of Drosophila revealing direct regulation of cell polarity by the cell cycle machinery in the context of cell fate specification.

    Editing of endogenous tubulins reveals varying effects of tubulin posttranslational modifications on axonal growth and regeneration

    Yu-Ming Lu, Shan Yan ... Chaogu Zheng
    Posttranslational modifications of tubulins regulate axonal growth and regeneration by controlling the stabilities of microtubules or modulating their interactions with microtubule-associated proteins.
