Rab11
- Parcas is the predominant Rab11-GEF for rhodopsin transport in Drosophila photoreceptors
Highlighted Article: Parcas, a Rab11-GEF, localizes Rab11 onto Golgi-associated recycling endosomes and post-Golgi vesicles in fly photoreceptors. Cytoplasmic rhodopsin accumulation seen upon Parcas deficiency phenocopies Rab11 knockdown.
- MYO1C stabilizes actin and facilitates the arrival of transport carriers at the Golgi complex
Highlighted Article: We describe a comparative analysis of the functions of myosin motors at the Golgi complex in cells normalized by micropatterns and identify MYO1C as a novel player at the Golgi.
- Control of apico–basal epithelial polarity by the microtubule minus-end-binding protein CAMSAP3 and spectraplakin ACF7
Highlighted Article: The spectraplakin ACF7 and microtubule minus-end-stabilizing protein CAMSAP3 cooperate in organizing non-centrosomal microtubule arrays in intestinal epithelial cells.
- Influenza A virus ribonucleoproteins modulate host recycling by competing with Rab11 effectors
Summary: Binding of influenza A virus ribonucleoproteins to the recycling endosome modulates its function, decreasing its sorting efficiency and inducing vesicular clustering.
