Proteins control many vital functions in living cells, such as cell growth and cell division.
Reliable coordination of these functions requires the spatial and temporal organization of …

Highlights•Ras and its effectors form large complexes. Ras–PI3K is at the membrane; Ras–
Raf extends via a long linker to the cytoplasm.•The membrane and its surface are highly …

Gold nanotriangles (Au NTs) present singular plasmonic properties that are particularly
attractive for photothermal applications. However, most syntheses rely on the use of …

Highlights•Myosin VI structural conformation dictates its interactome.•Alternative splicing
generates isoforms with specialized functions.•Coordination and competition are at the basis …

Nematocysts are generated by secretion of proteins into a post-Golgi compartment. They
consist of a capsule that elongates into a long tube, which is coiled inside the capsule matrix …

Intracellular protein patterns regulate many vital cellular functions, such as the processing of
spatiotemporal information or the control of shape deformations. To do so, pattern-forming …

Intracellular protein patterns regulate a variety of vital cellular processes such as cell
division and motility, which often involve dynamic cell-shape changes. These changes in …

Huntington's Disease (HD) is a fatal disorder characterized by polyglutamine expansion of
lengths> 35Q at the N-terminus of the huntingtin gene (HTT). In HD increasing repeat length …

Many cellular processes such as cell migration or division require a trade-off between
structural integrity and dynamic reorganization of the load-bearing elements. The actin …

The dynamic membrane reshaping processes are vital for the cells to preform its activity
normally. They are involved in a myriad of cellular pathways and can be preformed by …
