  1. 2012 Myosin Vs organize actin cables in fission yeast, Libera Lo Presti, Fred Chang, and Sophie G. Martin et al. Molecular Biology of the Cell. Link 23: 4579-91. Summary: Actin filaments serve as tracks for myosin motors. Evidence suggests that myosin contribute to the organization of these actin filaments. Using a synthetic biology approach, they separated the two distinct elements of cargo transport. First, They created a kinesin-myosin chimera, which delivers myosin cargoes across microtubule networks. Second, they linked the nucleus to the myosin motor traveling along actin cables partly restores cable organization. It was determined that the tethering the motor domain of Myo52 to the nucleus increases retrograde flow and cable extension. The in vivo data reveals that there is evidence of a self-organizing system in which myosin motor proteins shape their own tracks.
  1. 2011 Coiled-coil networking shapes cell molecular machinery Yongqiang Wanga, Xinlei Zhanga, Hong Zhang et al. Molecular Biology of the Cell. 23: 3911-22 Link Summary: An understanding of the coiled-coil interactions would help reveal the potential for exploration of its function and use in therapeutics. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast), it is revealed that CCI is functionally involved in cell machinery organization. CCI also plays an important role in the formation of kinetochore, which means that disruption of CCI leads to a defect in the kinetochore assembly. The study characterizes the CCI as a valuable component for shaping and regulation.
