Episodic Transport of Protein Aggregates Achieves a Positive Size Selectivity in Aggresome Formation

Rui Fang, Luolan Bai, Bert M. Verheijen…·Ying Lu

The paper investigates aggresome formation by reconstituting aggregate transport in Xenopus egg extract, finding that episodic dynein-mediated transport enables positive size selectivity.

Scaling between DNA and cell size governs bacterial growth homeostasis and resource allocation

Boyan Li, Songyuan Zhang, Le Zhang…·Long Qian

This study shows that breaking DNA-cell size scaling in E. coli leads to a linear growth regime and resource reallocation to plasmid-borne gene expression.
