Journal ArticleDOI
RNA Controls PolyQ Protein Phase Transitions
Huaiying Zhang,Shana Elbaum-Garfinkle,Erin M Langdon,Nicole Taylor,Patricia Occhipinti,Andrew A. Bridges,Clifford P. Brangwynne,Amy S. Gladfelter +7 more
TL;DR: These findings suggest that mRNAs can encode not only genetic information but also the biophysical properties of phase-separated compartments, and indicate mRNA can bring individuality to assemblies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Micron-scale plasma membrane curvature is recognized by the septin cytoskeleton
Andrew A. Bridges,Andrew A. Bridges,Maximilian S. Jentzsch,Patrick W. Oakes,Patricia Occhipinti,Amy S. Gladfelter,Amy S. Gladfelter +6 more
TL;DR: Fungal and human septins can distinguish between different degrees of micron-scale curvature in cells, suggesting that this property of the septin cytoskeleton provides a cell with a mechanism to sense its local shape.
Journal ArticleDOI
Septin assemblies form by diffusion-driven annealing on membranes
Andrew A. Bridges,Huaiying Zhang,Huaiying Zhang,Shalin B. Mehta,Patricia Occhipinti,Tomomi Tani,Amy S. Gladfelter,Amy S. Gladfelter +7 more
TL;DR: This work defines a key role of the membrane in directing septin filament formation in live cells and reconstituted dynamic septin polymerization, using purified components and finds that septins grow into filaments and form higher-order structures by diffusing, colliding, and annealing on the plasma membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI
Septin Form and Function at the Cell Cortex
TL;DR: The degree to which septins react to and/or induce changes in shape and lipid composition are discussed here and may yield new and unexpected functions in basic biology and disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell position fates and collective fountain flow in bacterial biofilms revealed by light-sheet microscopy.
Boyang Qin,Chenyi Fei,Andrew A. Bridges,Andrew A. Bridges,Ameya A. Mashruwala,Ameya A. Mashruwala,Howard A. Stone,Ned S. Wingreen,Bonnie L. Bassler,Bonnie L. Bassler +9 more
TL;DR: Dual-view light-sheet microscopy was developed to investigate the dynamics of biofilm development from a founder cell to a mature three-dimensional community and revealed how multicellular structures form from a single founder cell.
