Targeting and anchoring the mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo to facilitate its inhibition of axon regeneration
Qin Wang, Leanne Miles, Shuo Wang…·Yuanquan Song
This study identifies a pathway involving Rtca, Rab10, and Itgb1 that regulates Piezo localization and function, promoting axon regeneration inhibition in Drosophila and mice.

ACETYLATED α-TUBULIN LYSINE 394 IS CRITICAL FOR AXON OUTGROWTH IN THE ADULT MUSHROOM BODIES OF DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER
Chloe J. Welch, Liam O’Connor Mueller, Sophia P. Trujillo, Jill Wildonger
This study shows that acetylation of α-tubulin lysine 394 is essential for axon outgrowth in Drosophila mushroom bodies, with interactions involving Tau protein.

Coordination of Pickpocket ion channel delivery and dendrite growth in Drosophila sensory neurons
Josephine W. Mitchell, Ipek Midillioglu, Ethan Schauer…·Jill Wildonger
The paper investigates how the Pickpocket ion channel is trafficked to dendrites in Drosophila sensory neurons and finds that its delivery is coordinated with dendrite growth.

Light-induced trapping of endogenous proteins reveals spatiotemporal roles of microtubule and kinesin-1 in dendrite patterning of Drosophila sensory neurons
Yineng Xu, Bei Wang, Inle Bush…·Chun Han
The paper introduces OptoTrap, a light-inducible system for manipulating endogenous proteins, and uses it to study microtubule and kinesin-1 roles in dendrite patterning in Drosophila sensory neurons.
