      research Intramembrane Proteolysis of Astrotactins

      8 citations , January 2017 in “Journal of Biological Chemistry”
      This study found that astrotactin-2 undergoes unique intramembrane proteolysis during maturation, revealing specific transmembrane topologies and substrate sequence requirements for cleavage.
      The Role of Astrotactin2 in Regulating Mammalian Skin Polarity

      research 851 The role of astrotactin2 in regulating mammalian skin polarity

      April 2017 in “˜The œjournal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology”
      This study identified intramembrane proteolysis as a key feature of Astrotactin2 maturation, providing insights into its role in planar cell polarity hair patterning.

      research Spatial and Temporal Coordination of Force-generating Actin-based Modules Drives Membrane RemodelingIn Vivo

      December 2023 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)”
      This study observed that in live rodents, actin filaments adjust their structure to facilitate membrane transfer between cellular compartments; linear filaments stabilize fused membranes, while branched filaments, connected by the protein Ezrin, drive integration, demonstrating actin's role in adapting to membrane biophysical changes.
