The spatial regulation of protein translation is an efficient way to create functional and
structural asymmetries in cells. Recent research has furthered our understanding of how …

Abiotic stress is one of the primary causes of crop losses worldwide. Much progress has
been made in unraveling the complex stress response mechanisms, particularly in the …

The immediate early gene Arc is emerging as a versatile, finely tuned system capable of
coupling changes in neuronal activity patterns to synaptic plasticity, thereby optimizing …

Active transport by microtubule motors has a plethora of crucial roles in eukaryotic cells.
Organelles often move bidirectionally, employing both plus-end and minus-end directed …

Local protein synthesis regulates the turning of growth cones to guidance cues, yet little is
known about which proteins are synthesized or how they contribute to directional steering …

Plants viruses spread throughout their hosts using a number of pathways, the most common
being movement cell to cell through plasmodesmata (PD), unique intercellular organelles of …

The majority of active transport in the cell is driven by three classes of molecular motors: the
kinesin and dynein families that move toward the plus-end and minus-end of microtubules …

The myofibroblast is a specialized fibroblast that expresses α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA)
and participates in wound contraction and fibrosis. The fibroblast to myofibroblast transition …

Genome-wide identification of RNAs associated with RNA-binding proteins is crucial for
deciphering posttranscriptional regulatory systems. PUMILIO is a member of the …

The accurate distribution of sister chromatids during cell division is crucial for the generation
of two cells with the same complement of genetic information. A highly dynamic microtubule …
