This study investigates how synapsin-1 and actin form ordered nanoscale assemblies through phase separation, showing that actin scaffolds retain structural memory for condensate reformation.

This study shows how mechanochemical feedback between confinement and actin crosslinking controls droplet shape and actin organization through dynamic relationships between bundling and deformation.

The paper shows that actin-binding proteins forming liquid-like condensates can polymerize and bundle actin filaments, expanding the known set of proteins capable of this function.

The paper demonstrates that membrane curvature catalyzes actin nucleation through the condensation and activation of N-WASP by FBP17, revealing a curvature-guided mechanism for actin remodeling.

The paper investigates the role of Ena/VASP proteins in axon growth by analyzing filopodial morphology and actin organization in Drosophila neurons.
