Crb3 stabilizes activated Ezrin-Radixin-Moesin to organize the apical domain of multiciliated cells

This study identifies Crb3.L as essential for apical domain morphogenesis in Xenopus MCCs by stabilizing activated ERM proteins.

The compact genome of the sponge Oopsacas minuta (Hexactinellida) is lacking key metazoan core genes

This study analyzes the genome of the glass sponge Oopsacas minuta, revealing its compact size and loss of key metazoan genes, suggesting unique evolutionary adaptations.

A novel Golgi-associated Vangl2 translational variant required for PCP regulation in vertebrates

The paper identifies a novel Vangl2 isoform, Vangl2-Long, which is localized to the Golgi apparatus and plays a critical role in PCP regulation in vertebrates.

Active mucus-cilia hydrodynamic coupling drives self-organisation of human bronchial epithelium

The paper shows that mucus-cilia hydrodynamic coupling drives self-organisation of human bronchial epithelium during ciliogenesis, leading to macroscopic mucus transport.

ECT2 associated to PRICKLE1 are poor-prognosis markers in triple-negative breast cancer

The paper identifies PRICKLE1 and ECT2 as poor-prognosis markers in triple-negative breast cancer by showing their interaction and role in RAC1 signaling.

CDC20B is required for deuterosome-mediated centriole production in multiciliated cells

This study identifies CDC20B as essential for deuterosome-mediated centriole production in multiciliated cells, showing its interaction with PLK1 and Separase.
