A TRPV4-dependent calcium signaling axis governs lamellipodial actin architecture to promote cell migration

Ernest Iu, Alexander Bogatch, Wenjun Deng, Jonathan D. Humphries, Changsong Yang, Fernando R. Valencia, Chengyin Li, Christopher A. McCulloch, Guy Tanentzapf, Tatyana Svitkina, Martin James Humphries, Sergey V. Plotnikov

The paper identifies a TRPV4-dependent Ca2+ signaling pathway that regulates lamellipodia actin architecture and promotes cell migration through RhoA and formin-mediated actin assembly.

CCDC32 stabilizes clathrin-coated pits and drives their invagination

Ziyan Yang, Changsong Yang, Zheng Huang, Peiliu Xu, Yueping Li, Lu Han, Linyuan Peng, Xiangying Wei, John E. Pak, Tatyana Svitkina, Sandra L. Schmid, Zhiming Chen

This study identifies CCDC32 as an endocytic accessory protein that stabilizes clathrin-coated pits and drives their invagination, with mutations linked to cardio-facio-neuro-developmental syndrome.
