Piezoelectric nanoribbons for monitoring cellular deformations
Thanh D. Nguyen,Nikhil Deshmukh,John M. Nagarah,Tal Kramer,Prashant K. Purohit,Michael J. Berry,Michael C. McAlpine +6 more
TL;DR: Mechanical deformations of neuronal cells in response to electrical excitations can be measured using piezoelectric PbZr(x)Ti(1-x)O(3) (PZT) nanoribbons, and it is found that cells deflect by 1 nm when 120 mV is applied to the cell membrane.
Miro phosphorylation sites regulate Parkin recruitment and mitochondrial motility.
TL;DR: It is proposed that the status of Miro phosphorylation influences the decision to undergo Parkin-dependent mitochondrial arrest, which, in the context of PINK1 action on other substrates, can restrict mitochondrial dynamics before mitophagy.

Glycoproteins gE and gI are required for efficient KIF1A-dependent anterograde axonal transport of alphaherpesvirus particles in neurons
Radomir Kratchmarov,Tal Kramer,Tal Kramer,Todd M. Greco,Matthew P. Taylor,Toh Hean Ch'ng,Toh Hean Ch'ng,Ileana M. Cristea,Lynn W. Enquist +8 more
TL;DR: This work found that gE/gI are necessary for efficient copurification of KIF1A with Us9, especially at early times after infection, and constructed a PRV recombinant that expresses a functional gE-GFP fusion protein.

Visualization of an Alphaherpesvirus Membrane Protein That Is Essential for Anterograde Axonal Spread of Infection in Neurons
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors constructed and characterized new pseudorabies virus (PRV) strains that express functional greenfluo-rescent protein (GFP)-Us9 fusion proteins in order to visualize axonal transport of viral particles in infected rat superior cervical ganglion neurons.

Resolving the composition of protein complexes using a MALDI LTQ Orbitrap.
TL;DR: The MALDI LTQ Orbitrap is a new addition to the Orbitrap configurations, known for their high resolving power and accuracy, and its performance for characterizing the composition of isolated protein complexes is investigated.
