Happy to share our work in @embojournal πŸ‘‰ shorturl.at/zXNyn
For decades, we’ve known cells dismantle & rebuild the nuclear envelope in sync with spindle poles. But why does this coordination matter? And how do pole material properties ensure error-free division?

I'm so pleased the final version of this research is published! We found that epithelial cells neighoring the cytokinetic furrow regulate the speed and sucess of cell division, while maintaining barrier function and cell packing geometry. Many thanks to the co-authors who contributed! 🐸 #xenopus

Rho GTPase dynamics distinguish between models of cortical excitability Cortical excitability is the ability of the cell cortex to generate pulses and waves of Rho GTPase activity. Using live-cell imaging and theoretical modeling, Chomchai, Leda etΒ al. show that cortical ...

Balancing limited resources in actin network competition In cells, multiple actin networks coexist in a dynamic manner. These networks compete for a common pool of actin monomers and actin-binding proteins. …

Interesting paper on competition of intracellular structures. Congratulations Alexandra and colleagues! @acoli12 @alexandra-colin.bsky.social @manuelthery.bsky.social @lblanchoin.bsky.social
