Abstract: Significance Portions of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are degraded by autophagy (ER-phagy) in response to starvation or the accumulation of misfolded proteins. We show that ER-phagy requires assembly of actin at sites of contact between… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Many actin filaments in animal cells are co-polymers of actin and tropomyosin. In many cases, non-muscle myosin II associates with these co-polymers to establish a contractile network. However, the temporal relationship of these three… read more here.
