This paper shows that ubiquitin stabilizes Eps15 condensates, which are essential for clathrin-mediated endocytosis, and that ubiquitylation regulates the dynamics of endocytic assemblies.

The paper uses live-cell imaging to show that liposome diameter, not ligand density, primarily determines their endocytic uptake, with targeting most effective for intermediate-sized liposomes.

This study shows that intrinsically disordered proteins can undergo phase separation on lipid droplet surfaces, forming liquid-like protein-rich phases.

This study uses computational modeling and experiments to show that kinetic trapping of actin filaments in VASP droplets leads to different network architectures like shells and rings.

This study investigates how intrinsically disordered proteins with both repulsive and attractive domains influence membrane curvature based on domain positioning and ionic strength.

The paper develops a continuum membrane model to predict how helix insertion affects curvature sensing in membranes, showing it lowers energy for small vesicles but destabilizes larger ones.

This paper demonstrates how membrane curvature can be used to infer local tractions and shows that different membrane deformations correspond to distinct traction distributions.
