This study shows that myosin I motor activities enhance lipid diffusion by converting low-speed lipids to high-speed and reducing confined and subdiffusive motion in actin-rich regions.

This study measures forces on Myp2 in fission yeast using force sensors, showing the C-terminal tail significantly contributes to force transmission during cytokinesis.

This study presents a method to generate asymmetric phosphoinositide lipid bilayers by spontaneous insertion of PI(4,5)P2, demonstrating its mobility and functional recruitment of actin-related proteins.

This study identifies NOMO as a force-bearing ER transmembrane protein essential for muscle differentiation and ER morphology under mechanical strain.

This study uses coiled-coil force sensors to measure force transmission along the formin Cdc12 in fission yeast, revealing distinct mechanisms upstream and downstream of the FH2 domain.

This paper introduces genetically encoded mechano-sensors using coiled coils to measure mechanical forces in vivo with diverse readouts and compact design.

This study identifies a mechanical circuit in End4p that regulates force transmission during clathrin-mediated endocytosis in fission yeast.

This study investigates clathrin-mediated endocytosis by analyzing two hypotheses about vesicle formation and shows that experimental data better fit a model resembling the constant-area hypothesis.

This study develops a biophysical model of actin filament bundles to determine optimal conditions for mechanical power generation under external forces.
