Plastin 1 widens stereocilia by transforming actin filament packing from hexagonal to liquid (2016)
Journal Article
Krey, J. F., Krystofiak, E. S., Dumont, R. A., Vijayakumar, S., Choi, D., Rivero, F., Kachar, B., Jones, S. M., & Barr-Gillespie, P. G. (2016). Plastin 1 widens stereocilia by transforming actin filament packing from hexagonal to liquid. Journal of Cell Biology, 215(4), 467-482. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201606036

With their essential role in inner-ear function, stereocilia of sensory hair cells demonstrate the importance of cellular actin protrusions. Actin packing in stereocilia is mediated by crosslinkers of the plastin, fascin, and espin families. While mi...

Atypical Rho GTPases of the RhoBTB Subfamily: Roles in vesicle trafficking and tumorigenesis (2016)
Journal Article
Ji, W., & Rivero, F. (2016). Atypical Rho GTPases of the RhoBTB Subfamily: Roles in vesicle trafficking and tumorigenesis. Cells, 5(2), 28. https://doi.org/10.3390/cells5020028

RhoBTB proteins constitute a subfamily of atypical Rho GTPases represented in mammals by RhoBTB1, RhoBTB2, and RhoBTB3. Their characteristic feature is a carboxyl terminal extension that harbors two BTB domains capable of assembling cullin 3-dependen...

RHOBTB3 (Rho-related BTB domain containing 3) (2016)
Journal Article
Cai, S., & Rivero, F. (2016). RHOBTB3 (Rho-related BTB domain containing 3). Atlas of genetics and cytogenetics in oncology and haematology, 20(12), https://doi.org/10.4267/2042/66947

RHOBTB3 is one of the three members of the RhoBTB family. All RhoBTB proteins are characterized by a GTPase domain followed by a proline-rich region, a tandem of two BTB domains and a C-terminal putative RING finger domain. In RHOBTB3 the GTPase doma...
