This study shows that Myosin1E adapts to increased membrane tension by recruiting to more clathrin-mediated endocytosis sites to enhance actin network formation and promote internalization.

This paper uses cell fusion to rapidly generate genome-edited human cells expressing fluorescent fusion proteins, revealing novel protein-organelle interactions.

This paper introduces a micro CT method for imaging Drosophila development and disease modeling, showing its utility in studying microcephaly.
