Journal ArticleDOI

Talin at myotendinous junctions

TL;DR: Electron microscopic immunolabeling shows talin is a component of the digitlike processes of muscle cells that extend into tendons at myotendinous junctions, indicating that there may be similarities in the molecular composition of focal contacts and myotendedinous junications in addition to functional analogies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of nuclear content loading to exosomes

TL;DR: This work identifies the relationship between cancer cell micronuclei (MN), which are markers of genomic instability, and nExo formation and observes that multivesicular body precursors and exosomal markers, such as the tetraspanins, directly interact with MN.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel role for clathrin in cytokinesis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that clathrin is essential for construction of a functional contractile ring during cell division, and specific for cytokinesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clathrin heavy chain functions in sorting and secretion of lysosomal enzymes in Dictyostelium discoideum.

TL;DR: The study of the mutant cells provide in vivo evidence for roles for the clathrin heavy chain in the internalization of fluid from the plasma membrane; sorting of hydrolase precursors from the constitutive secretory pathway to the lysosomal pathway; and secretion of mature hydrolases from lysOSomes to the extracellular space.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cytokinesis failure in clathrin-minus cells is caused by cleavage furrow instability

TL;DR: It is found that adherent clathrin null cells do form cleavage furrows but cannot maintain a consistent rate of furrow ingression, and it is postulate that this morphology is the result of contraction at the rear of the presumptive daughter cells in concert with incomplete furrows ingression.
