🥼 Dr. Debra Silver's team from @DukeMGM discover that non-muscle #myosins play a role in mediating #interneuron organization!

They also reveal new mechanisms 🛠️ for dictating radial #glial cell integrity and #cortical architecture.

#RadialGlia have long basal fibers that end in basal endfeet. @LiWang_neuro & @Kriegsteinlabr explore a #PLOSBiology study showing that non-muscle #myosins control endfoot integrity to regulate interneuron organization. Primer https://plos.io/3J0mRZ5 Paper https://plos.io/3Yb599J

#Parasitology #preprint: new from Drew Etheridge lab (FA: N.Chasen
) looking at role of #myosins in #Tcruzi #endocytosis. Show MyoF+MyoC in complementary roles & also ID an essential new protein (MyAP) required for their targeting to the SPC🤩👍👏
