Research in the Campellone Lab
Cytoskeletal control of membrane remodeling in health, aging, and disease
Our research goals are to determine (1) how the cytoskeleton controls the organization, shape, and movement of cells and their internal components; (2) how cytoskeletal remodeling is altered by infectious microbes and genetic mutations; and (3) how cytoskeletal functions affect biological aging. We use a combination of bioinformatic, genetic, biochemical, molecular, cellular, and organismal approaches to study these processes.

Autophagy takes the L without Arp2/3 - Theodore and Wagner show the importance of cytoskeletal factors at Lysosomes:
Autophagosome turnover requires Arp2/3 complex-mediated maintenance of lysosomal integrity
Autophagosome turnover requires Arp2/3 complex-mediated maintenance of lysosomal integrity
Autophagy is an intracellular degradation process that maintains homeostasis, responds to stress, and plays key roles ...
