This study identifies a hyperactivating mutation in Fmnl2 causing brain and vertebrae defects in mice through a forward genetics screen.

This paper introduces MT-ID and Act-ID, proximity-labeling tools to identify microtubule and actin-interacting proteins, and discovers novel regulators like LIMCH1 and FBXO30.

The paper introduces SiR-XActin, a far-red fluorescent probe for imaging actin dynamics in live cells with minimal cytotoxicity and without genetic modifications.

The paper shows that mutant SOD1 increases axonal outgrowth, dendritic branching, and actin-based structures in adult motor neurons from ALS mouse models, suggesting a potential therapeutic target.
