Microtubule-severing enzymes–katanin, spastin, fidgetin–are related AAA-ATPases that cut
microtubules into shorter filaments. These proteins, also called severases, are involved in a …

Abstract ROPs (Rho of Plants) are plant specific small GTPases involved in many membrane
patterning processes and play important roles in the establishment and communication of …

Elucidating enzyme–substrate relationships in posttranslational modification (PTM) networks
is crucial for understanding signal transduction pathways but is technically difficult because …

Tubulin dimers assemble into dynamic microtubules, which are used by molecular motors as
tracks for intracellular transport. Organization and dynamics of the microtubule network are …

Properly patterned cell walls specify cellular functions in plants. Differentiating protoxylem
and metaxylem vessel cells exhibit thick secondary cell walls in striped and pitted patterns …

The remodeling of the microtubule cytoskeleton underlies dynamic cellular processes, such
as mitosis, ciliogenesis, and neuronal morphogenesis. An important class of microtubule …

Mechanical stress influences cell-and tissue-scale processes across all kingdoms. It
remains challenging to delineate how mechanical stress, originating at these different length …

The cytoskeleton plays a key role in establishing robust cell shape. In animals, it is well
established that cell shape can also influence cytoskeletal organization. Cytoskeletal …

All living organisms are subjected to mechanical forces at all times. It has been reported that
mechanics regulate many key cellular processes, including cell polarity establishment, cell …
