Membrane binding controls ordered self-assembly of animal septins

A Szuba, F Bano, G Castro-Linares, F Iv, M Mavrakis… - Elife, 2021 - elifesciences.org
Septins are conserved cytoskeletal proteins that regulate cell cortex mechanics. The
mechanisms of their interactions with the plasma membrane remain poorly understood. Here, we …

Septin-microtubule association via a motif unique to isoform 1 of septin 9 tunes stress fibers

M Kuzmić, G Castro Linares… - Journal of cell …, 2022 - journals.biologists.com
Septins, a family of GTP-binding proteins that assemble into higher order structures, interface

Insights into animal septins using recombinant human septin octamers with distinct SEPT9 isoforms

F Iv, CS Martins, G Castro-Linares… - Journal of cell …, 2021 - journals.biologists.com
Septin GTP-binding proteins contribute essential biological functions that range from the
establishment of cell polarity to animal tissue morphogenesis. Human septins in cells form …

Human septins organize as octamer-based filaments and mediate actin-membrane anchoring in cells

CS Martins, C Taveneau, G Castro-Linares… - Journal of Cell …, 2022 - rupress.org
Septins are cytoskeletal proteins conserved from algae and protists to mammals. A unique
feature of septins is their presence as heteromeric complexes that polymerize into filaments in …

Elucidating the role of water in collagen self-assembly by isotopically modulating collagen hydration

…, A Van Der Net, G Castro-Linares… - Proceedings of the …, 2024 - National Acad Sciences
Water is known to play an important role in collagen self-assembly, but it is still largely unclear
how water–collagen interactions influence the assembly process and determine the fibril …
