Golgi apparatus is a daunting target for imaging for its uniquely stacked morphology throughout 3D space. To see how we combined super-resolution microscopy and biochemistry to study Golgi, please read our manuscript with all supplementary in BioRxiv: biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
Trick bacteria with light! It took us a very long time to publish this work, but perseverance and teamwork prevailed. @ Ryan McQuillen @novayang1112 @ Amilcar Perez @malcolm Winkler @ Erin Goley @ Kumaran Ramamurthi nature.com/articles/s4146…
@juanmagararc shows that plasma membrane tension gradients are spontaneously formed in adherent cells. Unexpected because of membrane fluidity, cells combine adhesion to limit lipid diffusion and branched actin polymerization to increase tension at the cell edge, bravo Juanma!

😍 while F-BAR proteins have been proposed to link curvature-sensing to actin polymerization before, previous in vitro assay using liposomes of different sizes actually found the opposite. This might be the first conclusive evidence from an in vitro system.

We shows that FtsZ treadmilling acts both as a template to corral cell wall enzymes into close contacts for priming and as a conveyor to homologize the septal distribution of cell wall synthesis for even septum constriction. Great collaborations w/t @JieXiao_Lab & D.S. Weiss.

How is endocytosis initiated at synapses? In this new collaborative paper with @JianLiu_Lab, led by @UnculturedTy & Haoyuan, we suggest a novel idea - exocytosis causes lateral membrane compression, leading to the pit formation! rdcu.be/dczkM
