A non-enzymatic acetylation of lysine residues adversely affects the Rubisco activase protein stability

L. Yang, H. Hong, X. Gao, J. Essemine, X. Fang, Z. Shu, G. Ablat, M. Wu, H.-L. Mi, X.-Y. Chen, M. Qu, G.-Y. Chen

This study shows that non-enzymatic acetylation of lysine residues in Rubisco activase reduces its stability and ATPase activity under varying light and heat stress conditions.

Tension promotes kinetochore-microtubule release in response to Aurora B activity

G.-Y. Chen, F. Renda, H. Zhang, A. Gokden, D. Z. Wu, D. M. Chenoweth, A. Khodjakov, M. Lampson

The paper shows that Aurora B kinase activity leads to kinetochore-microtubule release under high tension and depolymerization under low tension, suggesting tension-dependent error correction mechanisms.

Kinesin-5 promotes microtubule nucleation and assembly by stabilizing a lattice-competent conformation of tubulin

G.-Y. Chen, A. B. Asenjo, Y. Chen, J. Mascaro, D. F. J. Arginteanu, H. J. Sosa, W. O. Hancock

This study identifies Eg5 as a microtubule polymerase that promotes microtubule growth by inducing a curved-to-straight transition in tubulin.

Motor reattachment kinetics play a dominant role in multimotor-driven cargo transport

Q. Feng, K. J. Mickolajczyk, G.-Y. Chen, W. O. Hancock

This study investigates how motor reattachment kinetics influence multi-motor-driven cargo transport, finding that kinesin-2's faster reattachment rate enhances cargo movement and navigation.
