The February edition of biobytes is a special report on the recent annual meeting of the American Society for Cell Biology. We hear from Kasturi Mitra (National Institute of Health, Bathesda, MD) about a cell-wide mitochondrial fusion event that boosts ATP production; we learn how tumors build their own migration highways (work by Ning Yang, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI); we hear from Karen Ridge (Northwestern University, Chicago, IL) about how lung cells deal with physical stress; and lastly, Nikki LeBrasseur finds out from Erika Holzbaur (University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA) how microtubule motorproteins deal with road bumps. The show was written, presented, and produced by Ruth Williams.
00:00 - Cell-wide mitochondrial fusion boosts ATP production; 05:54 - How tumors build their own migration highways; 08:00 - Lung cells stiffen up against stress; 11:28 - How microtubule motorproteins deal with road bumps.
