DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.12.009

Abstract: In plants, the cortical endoplasmic reticulum (ER) network is connected to the plasma membrane (PM) through the ER-PM contact sites (EPCSs), whose structures are maintained by EPCS resident proteins and the cytoskeleton.1-7 Strong co-alignment between… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2209522119

Abstract: Active cytoskeletal materials in vitro demonstrate self-organising properties similar to those observed in their counterparts in cells. However, the search to emulate phenomena observed in the living matter has fallen short of producing a cytoskeletal… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Molecular Biology of the Cell"

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e19-09-0491

Abstract: Actin filaments and microtubules are cytoskeletal polymers that participate in many vital cell functions including division, morphogenesis, phagocytosis, and motility. Despite the persistent dogma that actin filament and microtubule networks are distinct in localization, structure,… read more here.
