SIZE DETERMINATION AND MULTIPLEXED FLUORESCENCE-BASED PHENOTYPING OF SINGLE CELL-DERIVED MEMBRANE VESICLES USING A NANOFLUIDIC DEVICE

The paper introduces Nano-SMF, a nanofluidic method for size and 3-color fluorescence phenotyping of single nanoparticles, demonstrating improved accuracy over existing techniques for EV analysis.

METTL3 regulates exocytosis independently of m6A

This study identifies a non-catalytic role of METTL3 in regulating exocytosis and the cancer secretome through stabilization of EXOC7.

Mechanisms involved in the lipid membrane tubulation activity of the pH-responsive MakA protein from Vibrio cholerae

This study identifies the molecular mechanisms of MakA's pH-dependent lipid membrane tubulation, showing that His30 protonation and cholesterol binding drive conformational changes necessary for tubulation.

Lipid packing contributes to the confinement of caveolae to the plasma membrane

This study shows that lipid packing, particularly cholesterol, influences caveolae stability and dynamics in the plasma membrane.

Site-specific sulfations regulate the physicochemical properties of papillomavirus-heparan sulfate interactions for entry

The paper investigates how specific sulfation patterns on heparan sulfate affect HPV16 binding and structural activation, revealing their role in virus entry.
