Journal ArticleDOI

Cooperation between mDia1 and ROCK in Rho-induced actin reorganization

TL;DR: It is shown that GTP-bound Rho activates its effector mDia1 by disrupting mDIA1’s intramolecular interactions, which may induce the formation of different actin structures affected by the balance between mDía1 and ROCK signalling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coordination of microtubules and the actin cytoskeleton by the Rho effector mDia1.

TL;DR: Results indicate that mDia1 may coordinate microtubules and F-actin through its FH2 and FH1 regions, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cdc42 and mDia3 regulate microtubule attachment to kinetochores

TL;DR: Small GTPases of the Rho family regulate cell morphogenesis by organizing the actin cytoskeleton and regulating MT alignment and stabilization and it is shown that one member of this family, Cdc42, and its effector, mDia3, regulate MT attachment to kinetochores.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common architecture of the flagellar type III protein export apparatus and F- and V-type ATPases.

TL;DR: It is shown that the structure of FliJ derived from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium is remarkably similar to that of the two-stranded α-helical coiled-coil part of the γ subunit of FoF1-ATP synthase and thatFliJ promotes the formation of FloI hexamer rings by binding to the center of the ring.
Journal ArticleDOI

An infectivity-enhancing site on the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein targeted by antibodies

TL;DR: In this paper, a series of anti-spike monoclonal antibodies from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients were screened and found that some of the antibodies against the N-terminal domain induced the open conformation of RBD and thus enhanced the binding capacity of the spike protein to ACE2 and infectivity of SARS-CoV-2.
