Our fourth Special Issue will focus on the cell biology of the immune system, guest edited by Ana-Maria Lennon-Duménil. In this Editorial our Editor-in-Chief Michael Way explains why he is looking forward to reading about the special language of immunology.
Review - p62/SQSTM1 – steering the cell through health and disease
Pablo Sánchez-Martín and Masaaki Komatsu review the functions of the multifunctional SQSTM1 (p62) protein based on its post-translational modifications, and how its deregulation is involved in multiple human diseases.
Hypothesis - Mechanical forces on cellular organelles
Organelles are subjected to mechanical forces within the crowded cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Qian Feng and Benoît Kornmann discuss the effect of forces on two organelles: the nucleus and the mitochondrion.
Research highlight - A new role for CD151 in tumorigenesis
Fedor Berditchevski and colleagues describe a link between CD151 and fibroblast growth factor receptor 2 (FGFR2) in breast cancer in their Research Article.
First Person interviews
Have you seen our First Person interviews with the early-career first authors of our papers? The authors talk about their work in and out of the lab, the journeys that led them to where they are now and the scientists who inspired them along the way. Recently, we caught up with first authors Ana Romarowski, Shouying Xu, Gillian Johnson, Varisa Pongrakhananon and Lorna Young.
JCS Meeting – Cell dynamics: organelle-cytoskeleton interface
The second in our series of cell dynamics meetings now turns to organelles. This May 2019 meeting in Lisbon, Portugal, aims to bring together scientists studying the interface between organelles and the cytoskeleton at different scales and perspectives using a range of model systems.
