Synergistic control of cell adhesion by integrins and syndecans

MR Morgan, MJ Humphries, MD Bass - Nature reviews Molecular cell …, 2007 - nature.com
The ability of cells to adhere to each other and to their surrounding extracellular matrices is
essential for a multicellular existence. Adhesion provides physical support for cells, regulates …

Giving off mixed signals—Distinct functions of α5β1 and αvβ3 integrins in regulating cell behaviour

MR Morgan, A Byron, MJ Humphries, MD Bass - IUBMB life, 2009 - Wiley Online Library
The formation, maturation, and dissolution of focal adhesions are basic prerequisites of cell
migration and rely on the recruitment, signalling, and endocytosis of integrins. In many …

CACHE (Critical Assessment of Computational Hit-finding Experiments): a public–private partnership benchmarking initiative to enable the development of …

…, AR Leach, AA Lee, U Lessel, MR Morgan… - Nature Reviews …, 2022 - nature.com
One aspirational goal of computational chemistry is to predict potent and drug-like binders
for any protein, such that only those that bind are synthesized. In this Roadmap, we describe …

Same-day diagnostic and surveillance data for tuberculosis via whole-genome sequencing of direct respiratory samples

…, N Sanderson, TM Walker, MR Morgan… - Journal of clinical …, 2017 - Am Soc Microbiol
Routine full characterization of Mycobacterium tuberculosis is culture based, taking many
weeks. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) can generate antibiotic susceptibility profiles to …

Syndecan-4–dependent Rac1 regulation determines directional migration in response to the extracellular matrix

MD Bass, KA Roach, MR Morgan… - The Journal of cell …, 2007 - rupress.org
Cell migration in wound healing and disease is critically dependent on integration with the
extracellular matrix, but the receptors that couple matrix topography to migratory behavior …

Biodiesel from microalgae, yeast, and bacteria: engine performance and exhaust emissions

…, MR Morgan, AT McCurdy, RM Willis, MD Morgan… - Energy & …, 2013 - ACS Publications
Biodiesels (fatty acid methyl esters) derived from oleaginous microbes (microalgae, yeast,
and bacteria) are being actively pursued as potential renewable substitutes for petroleum …

[PDF][PDF] A syndecan-4 hair trigger initiates wound healing through caveolin-and RhoG-regulated integrin endocytosis

…, RD Nunan, JD Humphries, A Byron, MR Morgan… - Developmental cell, 2011 - cell.com
Cell migration during wound healing requires adhesion receptor turnover to enable the
formation and disassembly of cell-extracellular matrix contacts. Although recent advances have …

[PDF][PDF] Syndecan-4 phosphorylation is a control point for integrin recycling

MR Morgan, H Hamidi, MD Bass, S Warwood… - Developmental cell, 2013 - cell.com
Precise spatiotemporal coordination of integrin adhesion complex dynamics is essential for
efficient cell migration. For cells adherent to fibronectin, differential engagement of α 5 β 1 …

p190RhoGAP is the convergence point of adhesion signals from α5β1 integrin and syndecan-4

MD Bass, MR Morgan, KA Roach, J Settleman… - The Journal of cell …, 2008 - rupress.org
The fibronectin receptors α 5 β 1 integrin and syndecan-4 cocluster in focal adhesions and
coordinate cell migration by making individual contributions to the suppression of RhoA …

Prediction of stress concentrations and degrees of bending in axially loaded tubular K-joints

MR Morgan, MMK Lee - Journal of Constructional Steel Research, 1998 - Elsevier
An extensive database of stress concentrations and degree of bending in tubular K-joints
under balanced axial loading, generated recently in a finite element parametric study, has …
