Cover Image
Cover: 3D representation of spreading NIH3T3 cells with or without knockdown of Crk-family proteins. Shown are images of a wild-type NIH3T3 cell (left) and of one that expressed shRNA targeting all Crk family proteins (right). Cells were immunostained using antibody against vinculin (green), and F-actin was visualized with Texas-Red-conjugated phalloidin (red) (top and middle, respectively). The merged image is shown at the bottom. Red and green rectangular sub-panels represent x-z and y-z axes of the cell images. See article by S. Antoku et al. (p. 3071).Close Modal - PDF Icon PDF LinkTable of contents

Cell scientist to watch: Christian Münch
-CSTW.png?versionId=3844)
Journal of Cell Science interviewed Christian Münch, who established his independent research group in 2016 at Goethe University Frankfurt. His lab studies cellular stress responses to mitochondrial protein misfolding, infection and disease, as well as developing proteomics methods.
A unifying model for the role of the ATG8 system in autophagy

In this Hypothesis article, Thanh Ngoc Nguyen and Michael Lazarou reconcile prior observations of the core ATG8 system into a unifying model of their function that aims to consider apparently conflicting discoveries.
FocalPlane Network launched
-FocalPlaneNetworkLaunch.png?versionId=3844)
We are excited to announce the launch of the FocalPlane Network, an international directory of microscopists. The idea behind the FocalPlane Network is to facilitate promotion and networking as well as assist those seeking conference speakers, committee members, reviewers or collaborators. We hope that it will help promote diversity in the community. Find out more and join the Network here.
