    Delivery of endocytosed proteins to the cell–division plane requires change of pathway from recycling to secretion

    Sandra Richter, Marika Kientz ... Gerd Jürgens
    The same membrane trafficking cargo can change pathways mediated by different members of ARF-GEF family of vesicle formation regulators.

    Structural basis for the assembly of the mitotic motor Kinesin-5 into bipolar tetramers

    Jessica E Scholey, Stanley Nithianantham ... Jawdat Al-Bassam
    The Bipolar Assembly domain of kinesin-5 comprises an anti-parallel four-helix bundle, which explains how kinesin-5 subunits assemble into bipolar tetramers with two motile ends that transmit forces while crosslinking and sliding adjacent microtubules during mitosis.

    Aim24 and MICOS modulate respiratory function, tafazzin-related cardiolipin modification and mitochondrial architecture

    Max Emanuel Harner, Ann-Katrin Unger ... Walter Neupert
    Interactions between Aim24 and the mitochondrial outer and inner membrane contact site complex (MICOS) are essential for mitochondrial ultrastructure, lipid composition and oxidative phosphorylation.

    The Ca2+-activated K+ current of human sperm is mediated by Slo3

    Christoph Brenker, Yu Zhou ... Timo Strünker
    The principal potassium ion channel in human sperm, Slo3, is primarily activated by calcium ions and controls the membrane potential of human sperm by intracellular calcium ion levels rather than intracellular pH.

    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.
