Membrane protein condensates polymerize actin and form filopodia

Shannon Bareesel, Thomas J. Böddeker, Willem Bintig, Domonkos Nagy-Herczeg, Max Ruwolt, Vasiliki Syropoulou, Cristina Kroon, Patricia Kreis, Susanne Wegmann, Michal Szczepek, Christian M. T. Spahn, Patrick Scheerer, George Leondaritis, Fan Liu, Roland L. Knorr, Britta Johanna Eickholt

This study identifies PLPPR3 condensates as actin sinks that locally boost monomer concentrations, promoting actin polymerization and filopodia formation in neurons.

Phosphorylation of PLPPR3 membrane proteins as signaling integrator at neuronal synapses

Cristina Kroon, Shannon Bareesel, Marieluise Kirchner, Niclas Gimber, Dimitra Ranti, Annika Brosig, Kathrin Textoris‐Taube, Timothy Adam Zolnik, Philipp Mertins, Jan Schmoranzer, George Leondaritis, Britta Johanna Eickholt

The paper identifies phosphorylation sites in PLPPR3 and shows that phosphorylation at S351 regulates its interaction with BASP1, suggesting a role for the PLPPR3-BASP1 complex in synaptic signaling.
