CELL SCIENCE AT A GLANCE ERM proteins at a glance
The cell cortex is a dynamic and heterogeneous structure that governs cell identity and behavior. The ERM proteins (ezrin, radixin and moesin) are major architects of the cell cortex, and they link plasma membrane phospholipids and proteins to the underlying cortical actin cytoskeleton. Recent studies in several model systems have uncovered surprisingly dynamic and complex molecular activities ...
متن کاملArgonaute proteins at a glance.
Although a large portion of the human genome is actively transcribed into RNA, less than 2% encodes proteins. Most transcripts are noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), which have various cellular functions. Small ncRNAs (or small RNAs) – ncRNAs that are characteristically ~20-35 nucleotides long – are required for the regulation of gene expression in many different organisms. Most small RNA species fall in...
متن کاملAuthor Correction Fluorescent proteins at a glance
Journal of Cell Science 124, 2676 © 2011. Published by The Company of Biologists Ltd doi:10.1242/jcs.095059 There was an error published in J. Cell Sci. 124, 157-160. During the course of creating the accompanying poster, pseudocolored fluorescent protein fusion images from previous publications were used to define the layout. Many of these images were inadvertently not replaced with a similar ...
متن کاملCELL SCIENCE AT A GLANCE Cerebral cavernous malformation proteins at a glance
Loss-of-function mutations in genes encoding KRIT1 (also known as CCM1), CCM2 (also known as OSM and malcavernin) or PDCD10 (also known as CCM3) cause cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs). These abnormalities are characterized by dilated leaky blood vessels, especially in the neurovasculature, that result in increased risk of stroke, focal neurological defects and seizures. The three CCM pro...

compensate for one another, although there is no evidence of true biochemical redundancy. The genomes of lower organisms, such as Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster and Danio rerio, harbor single ERM orthologues; in fact, ERMs appeared evolutionarily during the transition to multicellularity and an ERM-like protein is encoded by the genome of the choanoflagellate Monosiga brevicoli...
