Helena's review on using optogenetics to dissect out shared mechanisms of apical-basal polarity and mitosis is out online - well done Helena! https://www.karger.com/Article/Abstract/528796
www.karger.comUsing optogenetics to investigate the shared mechanisms of apical-basal polarity and mitosisThe initiation of apical-basal (AB) polarity and the process of mitotic cell division are both characterised by the generation of specialised plasma membrane and cortical domains. These are generated using shared mechanisms, such as asymmetric protein accumulation, Rho GTPase signalling, cytoskeletal reorganisation, vesicle trafficking and asymmetr
