The PCM scaffold enables RNA localization to centrosomes

J. Fang, W. Tian, M. A. Quintanilla…·D. A. Lerit

The paper investigates how Plp mRNA localizes to centrosomes, showing that its coding sequence is necessary and sufficient for localization and that PCM scaffold interactions facilitate this process.

Local Monomer Levels and Established Filaments Potentiate Non-Muscle Myosin 2 Assembly

M. A. Quintanilla, H. Patel, H. Wu…·J. R. Beach

This study identifies biophysical mechanisms regulating non-muscle myosin 2 filament assembly using dynamic imaging and optogenetic tools, showing myosin monomer concentration and myosin:myosin interactions drive filament formation.

Non-muscle myosin 2 filaments are processive in cells

E. A. Vitriol, M. A. Quintanilla, J. J. Tidei…·J. R. Beach

This study shows non-muscle myosin 2 (NM2) filaments are processive in cells, moving against actin flow in protrusions and stress fibers, with NM2A slightly faster than NM2B.
