Glycogen-dependent demixing of frog egg cytoplasm at increased crowding

J. F. Pelletier, C. M. Field, M. Coughlin, L. Ryazanova, M. Sonnett, M. Wühr, T. J. Mitchison

The paper investigates how increased crowding affects cytoplasm demixing in Xenopus egg extracts, showing glycogen-rich phases form and are influenced by glycogen hydrolysis.

Rho and F-actin self-organize within an artificial cell cortex

J. Landino, M. Leda, A. Michaud, Z. Swider, M. Prom, C. M. Field, W. M. Bement, A. G. Vecchiarelli, A. B. Goryachev, A. L. Miller

This study creates an artificial cell cortex using Xenopus egg extract and lipid bilayers to observe self-organizing Rho and F-actin dynamics similar to those in vivo.

Co-movement of astral microtubules, organelles and F-actin suggests aster positioning by surface forces in frog eggs

J. F. Pelletier, C. M. Field, S. Fürthauer, M. Sonnett, T. J. Mitchison

The paper observes co-movement of astral microtubules, organelles, and F-actin in Xenopus eggs, suggesting that surface forces, not dynein-based transport, drive aster positioning.

Disassembly of actin and keratin networks by Aurora B kinase at the midplane of cleaving Xenopus laevis eggs

C. M. Field, J. F. Pelletier, T. Mitchison

The paper investigates how Aurora B kinase disassembles actin and keratin networks at the midplane of cleaving Xenopus laevis eggs, facilitating cytokinesis.
