Diffusible crosslinkers generate directed forces in microtubule networks
Zdenek Lansky,Zdenek Lansky,Marcus Braun,Marcus Braun,Annemarie Lüdecke,Michael Schlierf,Pieter Rein ten Wolde,Marcel E. Janson,Stefan Diez,Stefan Diez +9 more
TL;DR: It is experimentally demonstrated that diffusible microtubule crosslinkers of the Ase1/PRC1/Map65 family generate directed micro Tubule sliding when confined between partially overlapping microtubules.

Plant Cytokinesis: Terminology for Structures and Processes
Andrei Smertenko,Farhah F. Assaad,František Baluška,Magdalena Bezanilla,Henrik Buschmann,Georgia Drakakaki,Marie-Theres Hauser,Marcel E. Janson,Yoshinobu Mineyuki,Ian Moore,Sabine Müller,Takashi Murata,Marisa S. Otegui,Emmanuel Panteris,Carolyn G. Rasmussen,Anne-Catherine Schmit,Jozef Šamaj,Lacey Samuels,L. Andrew Staehelin,Daniël Van Damme,Geoffrey O. Wasteneys,Viktor Žárský +21 more
TL;DR: A lexicon of terminology for specific structures and processes associated with plant cytokinesis is proposed and it is recognized that future research and knowledge transfer into other fields would benefit from standardized terminology.

DIX Domain Polymerization Drives Assembly of Plant Cell Polarity Complexes.
Maritza van Dop,Marc Fiedler,Sumanth K. Mutte,Jeroen de Keijzer,Lisa Olijslager,Catherine Albrecht,Che-Yang Liao,Marcel E. Janson,Mariann Bienz,Dolf Weijers +9 more
TL;DR: It is shown that DIX-dependent polymerization is an ancient mechanism conserved between kingdoms and central to polarity proteins, and cross-kingdom domain swaps reveal functional equivalence of animal and plant DIX domains.

MICROTUBULE-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN65 Is Essential for Maintenance of Phragmoplast Bipolarity and Formation of the Cell Plate in Physcomitrella patens
Ken Kosetsu,Jeroen de Keijzer,Jeroen de Keijzer,Marcel E. Janson,Marcel E. Janson,Gohta Goshima,Gohta Goshima +6 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that the presence of bipolar MT arrays is insufficient for vesicle accumulation at the equator and suggest that MAP65-mediated MT interdigitation is a prerequisite for maintenance of bipolarity of the phragmoplast and accumulation and/or fusion of cell plate–destined vesicles at the Equator.
Shortening of Microtubule Overlap Regions Defines Membrane Delivery Sites during Plant Cytokinesis.
Jeroen de Keijzer,Jeroen de Keijzer,Henk Kieft,Tijs Ketelaar,Gohta Goshima,Gohta Goshima,Marcel E. Janson,Marcel E. Janson +7 more
TL;DR: It is shown that membranous material for cell-plate formation initially accumulates along regions of microtubule overlap in the phragmoplast of the moss Physcomitrella patens, and this results will help uncover universal features underlying membrane-cytoskeleton coordination during cytokinesis.
