The paper investigates how the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contributes to microtubule aster centration in sea urchin zygotes through mechanical interactions and 3D modeling.

The paper identifies PAX3's role in coupling metabolism and cell mechanics during neuroepithelial morphogenesis, showing mannose metabolism is critical for adherens junction function.

The paper investigates how composite endomembrane suspensions in eukaryotic cells contribute to cytoplasm rheology, finding that ER structures enable viscoelastic properties through yolk flocculation.

This study identifies two distinct host subcellular niches where membrane damage occurs during Candida albicans invasion, with the cell-cell boundary being the main driver of host cell death.

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