This study shows that fascin crosslinking slows cofilin-induced actin filament disassembly by reducing cofilin cluster nucleation on bundles, while promoting inter-filament cooperativity.

This study shows that VAPA is essential for cell motility by anchoring ER-PM contact sites to focal adhesions and maintaining PI(4,5)P2 levels at the plasma membrane.

The paper studies cell wall dynamics in Aspergillus nidulans using sub-resolution imaging and develops a mechanical model to explain how secretion and expansion balance to support tip growth and morphogenesis.

This study shows that the AMA1-RON complex is essential for Plasmodium sporozoite invasion of mosquito salivary glands and mammalian hepatocytes, supporting its role in parasite transmission.

This study shows that cytoplasm viscoelastic properties can actively move and reposition mitotic spindles in living cells, independent of cytoskeletal forces.

This study shows Candida albicans invades epithelial cells through trans-cellular tunnels, either causing or avoiding host damage, using live-cell imaging and electron microscopy.

This study identifies AURKA's role in inducing mitophagy via a tripartite complex with PHB2 and MAP1LC3, and shows that Xanthohumol can block this process.

This paper introduces Random Illumination Microscopy (RIM), a super-resolution technique that achieves high-resolution, low-toxicity, and fast imaging for live-cell studies.

This study identifies a feedback mechanism that coordinates polar growth and cell wall assembly in fission yeast to maintain wall thickness and cell survival.
