cdc42 regulates the exit of apical and basolateral proteins from the trans-Golgi networkA Musch
Dyson Institute of Vision Research, Departments of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Joan and Sanford Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, NY 10021, USA
EMBO J 20:2171-9. 2001..This regulation may result from modulation of the actin cytoskeleton, as GTPase-deficient cdc42 depleted a perinuclear actin pool that rapidly exchanges with exogenous fluorescent actin...
Mammalian homolog of Drosophila tumor suppressor lethal (2) giant larvae interacts with basolateral exocytic machinery in Madin-Darby canine kidney cellsAnne Müsch
M Dyson Vision Research Institute, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, NY 10021, USA
Mol Biol Cell 13:158-68. 2002..These data suggest that Mlgl contributes to apico-basolateral polarity by regulating basolateral exocytosis...
Microtubule organization and function in epithelial cellsAnne Müsch
Dyson Institute of Vision Research Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, 10021, USA
Traffic 5:1-9. 2004..Novel findings suggest, moreover, that microtubule-based transport promotes protein sorting, and even the generation of transport carriers in the endo- and exocytic pathways...
PAR1b promotes cell-cell adhesion and inhibits dishevelled-mediated transformation of Madin-Darby canine kidney cellsMaya Elbert
Margaret M Dyson Vision Research Institute and Graduate Program in Pharmacology, Cornell University Medical College, New York, NY 10021, USA
Mol Biol Cell 17:3345-55. 2006..Instead, our data suggest that both proteins function antagonistically to regulate the assembly of functional E-cadherin-dependent adhesion complexes...
Protein sorting in the Golgi complex: shifting paradigmsEnrique Rodriguez-Boulan
Margaret Dyson Vision Research Institute, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, LC 300, 1300 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021, USA
Biochim Biophys Acta 1744:455-64. 2005..Several adaptors are candidates to sort apical and basolateral proteins but only AP1B and AP4 are currently involved. Progress is fast and future work should elucidate many of the open questions...
Par-1 promotes a hepatic mode of apical protein trafficking in MDCK cellsDavid Cohen
Dyson Vision Research Institute, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, NY 10021, USA
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 101:13792-7. 2004..To our knowledge, Par-1 is the first gene assigned to this task in epithelial morphogenesis...
Par1b promotes hepatic-type lumen polarity in Madin Darby canine kidney cells via myosin II- and E-cadherin-dependent signalingDavid Cohen
The Margaret Dyson Institute of Vision Research, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, NY 10021, USA
Mol Biol Cell 18:2203-15. 2007..E-cadherin depletion also reverted the hepatic-type intracellular luminal compartment in Par1b-MDCK cells to VACs characteristic of control MDCK cells, indicating a novel link between E-cadherin and luminal protein targeting...
Organization of vesicular trafficking in epitheliaEnrique Rodriguez-Boulan
Margaret Dyson Vision Research Institute, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, 1300 York Avenue, New York, New York 10021, USA
Nat Rev Mol Cell Biol 6:233-47. 2005..Recent live-cell-imaging studies provide a real-time view of sorting processes in epithelial cells, including key roles for actin, microtubules and motors in the organization of post-Golgi trafficking...
Mammalian PAR-1 determines epithelial lumen polarity by organizing the microtubule cytoskeletonDavid Cohen
Margaret M. Dyson Vision Research Institute, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, 1300 York Ave, Box 233, New York, NY 10021, USA
J Cell Biol 164:717-27. 2004..Our experiments suggest that EMK1 primarily promotes reorganization of the MT network, consistent with the MT-regulating role of this gene product in other systems, which in turn controls lumen formation and position...
Epithelial trafficking: new routes to familiar placesEnrique Rodriguez-Boulan
Margaret Dyson Vision Research Institute, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, 1300 York Ave, New York, New York 10021, USA
Curr Opin Cell Biol 16:436-42. 2004..A promising area of research is the study of trafficking functions of novel polarity genes identified in Drosophila and Caenorhabditis elegans...
Apical surface formation in MDCK cells: regulation by the serine/threonine kinase EMK1David Cohen
M. Dyson Institute of Vision Research, Weill Medical College of Cornell University, New York, NY 10021, USA
Methods 30:269-76. 2003..The assays allowed us to characterize the Caenorhabditis elegans PAR-1 homologue EMK1 as a novel regulator of apical surface formation in epithelial cells...
Research Grants
- EMK1 in kidney and hepatic epithelial cell polarityANNE MUESCH; Fiscal Year: 2010..to elucidate the EMK1 -mediated differences in the apical protein trafficking pathways that contribute to different lumen polarity in kidney epithelia and hepatocytes. ..
