Join us for the next DGZ Focus Workshop, next week Tuesday, organized by Franziska Lautenschläger & Anne Straube, featuring topics around #cytoskeleton and #molecularmotors. Talks by @lilianpaty.bsky.social , Rhoda Hawkins, Roman Podhajecky & Kanako Iwasaki

Actin directly interacts with vimentin intermediate filaments, enhancing both actin polymerization and nucleation! Fantastic experiments done by @lilianpaty.bsky.social with @romet-jegou-lab.bsky.social, now backed by our theory. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

is there a direct crosstalk between actin and vimentin intermediate filaments? Our work shows that vimentin promotes actin assembly by stabilizing ATP-subunits at the barbed end. Fantastic work done by @lilianpaty.bsky.social with @romet-jegou-lab.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...
