Conduit Lab – Building the centrosome: PLK-1 controls multimerization of SPD-5

Home publis12 March 2024
The Conduit Lab published a spotlight in Journal of Cell Biology: Building the centrosome: PLK-1 controls multimerization of SPD-5   Introduction: Centrosome maturation relies on the assembly of an underlying molecular scaffold. In this issue of JCB, Rios et al. (https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202306142) use cross-linking mass spectrometry to reveal how PLK-1 phosphorylation promotes intermolecular SPD-5 self-association that is essential for…

Jackson/Verbavatz Lab – The ER tether VAPA is required for proper cell motility and anchors ER-PM contact sites to focal adhesions

Home publis, News7 March 2024
The Jackson/Verbavatz Lab published a new article eLife: The ER tether VAPA is required for proper cell motility and anchors ER-PM contact sites to focal adhesions   Abstract: Cell motility processes highly depend on the membrane distribution of Phosphoinositides, giving rise to cytoskeleton reshaping and membrane trafficking events. Membrane contact sites serve as platforms for direct lipid exchange…
