Structure/function analysis of four core ESCRT-III proteins reveals common regulatory role for extreme C-terminal domain.
TL;DR: Overall, this study supports a model in which ESCRT‐III proteins cycle between a default ‘closed’ state and an activated ‘open' state under control of sequences at their C‐terminus and associated factors.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported linkage of autosomal dominant posterior subcapsular cataracts segregating in a white family to short tandem repeat (STR) markers D20S847 (LOD score [Z] 5.50 at recombination fraction [θ] 0.0] on 20q, and identify a refined disease interval (rs2057262 −(3.8 Mb) −rs1291139) by use of single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Structure of cellular ESCRT-III spirals and their relationship to HIV budding
TL;DR: Using deep-etch electron microscopy, it is found that endogenous ESCRT-III filaments stabilized by depleting cells of Vps4 create uniform membrane-deforming conical spirals which are assemblies of specific ESC RT-III heteropolymers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cell biology of the ESCRT machinery.
TL;DR: Recent studies suggesting that components of the ESCRT-III complex drive lumenal vesicle formation are reviewed and possible mechanisms for this reaction are considered.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel interactions of ESCRT-III with LIP5 and VPS4 and their implications for ESCRT-III disassembly.
TL;DR: A role for direct binding between LIP5 and ESCRT-III proteins that is likely to complement LIP 5's previously described ability to regulate VPS4 activity is pointed to.
