We are pleased to share our latest preprint on bioRxiv! Led by graduate student @VostalLauren, we use chemical proteomics to profile VCP-DUB interactions in living cells. We identify DUBs that bind the entry, exit, or both sites of VCP's central pore. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Excited to present a new story, where we use purified proteins to reconstitute repair of mechanical damage in contractile actin networks by the LIM domain protein zyxin.

Harriet Saunders, Cyntha van de Berg, et al. show how ciliary tip proteins cooperate to make slow growing #microtubules in their new preprint! Together they form a structure that looks like a champagne cork in a #microtubule 😍 biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…
