This study compares FCS and FRAP techniques to measure diffusion in yeast plasma membrane proteins, revealing discrepancies in Sso2 diffusion due to subdomain localization.

The paper investigates the expression and subcellular localization of TLK2 in neurons, showing that neuronal differentiation and activity drive its nucleocytoplasmic shuttling.

This study shows that GSK-3β regulates axonal microtubule organisation via Shot and Tau, and misregulation causes microtubule disorganisation linked to neurodegeneration.

This study uses steady-state visually evoked potentials in Drosophila to show that altering GSK3β activity affects neuronal function, with distinct response patterns observed in constitutively active and inactive variants.

The paper identifies microtubule-curling as a marker of axonal atrophy by analyzing gene deficiencies in Drosophila neurons, revealing two distinct mechanisms linked to neurodegeneration.

This study identifies spectraplakin Shot as essential for dendritic microtubule orientation via transient stabilization and tip-based nucleation during Drosophila development.

This study investigates the role of spectraplkin proteins in axon growth and maintenance, revealing that their function depends on a balanced interaction with F-actin and that they have actin-independent roles in microtubule bundling.

The paper investigates the role of periodic actin structures (PMS) in maintaining microtubules in axons using Drosophila genetics and microscopy, finding that PMS supports microtubule organization and polymerization.

This paper reviews the molecular mechanisms regulating microtubule plus end dynamics in neuronal axons and discusses challenges in integrating this knowledge into a conceptual framework.
