The prion-like domain of the chloroplast RNA binding protein CP29A is required for cold-induced phase separation next to nucleoids and supports RNA splicing and translation during cold acclimation

This study shows that the prion-like domain of CP29A enables temperature-dependent phase separation in Arabidopsis, supporting RNA splicing and translation during cold acclimation.

SPI-1 virulence gene expression modulates motility of Salmonella Typhimurium in a proton motive force- and adhesins-dependent manner

This study shows that HilD activation in Salmonella Typhimurium reduces motility via SPI-1-dependent PMF depletion and adhesin upregulation, enhancing adhesion to host cells.

Temporal Analysis of T-Cell Receptor-Imposed Forces via Quantitative Single Molecule FRET Measurements

The paper measures T-cell receptor forces using single molecule FRET, finding a 5 pN force peak during T-cell activation on gel-phase SLBs.

Nanoconfinement of Microvilli Alters Gene Expression and Boosts T cell Activation

This study shows that nanoporous surfaces enhance T cell activation by altering gene expression and promoting microvilli formation through size-dependent protein segregation.

Functionalized bead assay to measure 3-dimensional traction forces during T-cell activation

This paper develops a traction force microscopy platform to quantify local 3D traction forces exerted by T-cell microvilli during activation, linking force measurements to T-cell signaling.
