Dynamic diffusion analysis of the yeast plasma membrane using Airyscan based microscopic techniques

Martha S. C. Xelhuantzi, Alex Roof, Blythe Wright, Katherine M. Paine, Amy Milburn, Grant M. Calder, Nia J. Bryant, Peter J O’Toole, Ines Hahn, Chris MacDonald

This study compares FCS and FRAP techniques to measure diffusion in yeast plasma membrane proteins, revealing discrepancies in Sso2 diffusion due to subdomain localization.

GSK-3β coordinates axonal microtubule organisation through Shot and Tau

André Voelzmann, Lubna Nuhu-Soso, Alex Roof, Sanjai Patel, Hayley J. Bennett, Antony D. Adamson, Gareth John Evans, Marvin Bentley, Ines Hahn

This study shows that GSK-3β regulates axonal microtubule organisation via Shot and Tau, and misregulation causes microtubule disorganisation linked to neurodegeneration.
