Abstract
In eukaryotes, the spatiotemporal control of endolysosomal organelles is central to the maintenance of homeostasis. By providing an interface between the cytoplasm and external environment, the endolysosomal system is placed at the forefront of the response to a wide range of stresses faced by cells. Endosomes are equipped with a dedicated set of membrane-associated proteins that ensure endosomal functions as well as crosstalk with the secretory or the autophagy pathways. Morphodynamical processes operate through local spatialization of subdomains, enabling specific remodeling and membrane contact capabilities. Consequently, the plasticity of endolysosomal organelles can be considered a robust and flexible tool exploited by cells to cope with homeostatic deviations. In this review, we provide insights into how the cellular responses to various stresses (osmotic, UV, nutrient deprivation, or pathogen infections) rely on the adaptation of the endolysosomal system morphodynamics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The tunicates form a group of filter-feeding marine animals closely related to vertebrates. They share with them a number of features such as a notochord and a dorsal neural tube in the tadpole larvae of ascidians, one of the three groups that make tunicates. However, a number of typical chordate characters have been lost in different branches of tunicates, a diverse and fast-evolving phylum. Consequently, the tunic, a sort of exoskeleton made of extracellular material including cellulose secreted by the epidermis, is the unifying character defining the tunicate phylum. In the larva of ascidians, the tunic differentiates in the tail into a median fin (with dorsal and ventral extended blades) and a caudal fin. RESULTS Here we have performed experiments in the ascidian Phallusia mammillata to address the molecular control of tunic 3D morphogenesis. We have demonstrated that the tail epidermis medio-lateral patterning essential for peripheral nervous system specification also controls tunic elongation into fins. More specifically, when tail epidermis midline identity was abolished by BMP signaling inhibition, or CRISPR/Cas9 inactivation of the transcription factor coding genes Msx or Klf1/2/4/17, median fin did not form. We postulated that this genetic program should regulate effectors of tunic secretion. We thus analyzed the expression and regulation in different ascidian species of two genes acquired by horizontal gene transfer (HGT) from bacteria, CesA coding for a cellulose synthase and Gh6 coding for a cellulase. We have uncovered an unexpected dynamic history of these genes in tunicates and high levels of variability in gene expression and regulation among ascidians. Although, in Phallusia, Gh6 has a regionalized expression in the epidermis compatible with an involvement in fin elongation, our functional studies indicate a minor function during caudal fin formation only. CONCLUSIONS Our study constitutes an important step in the study of the integration of HGT-acquired genes into developmental networks and a cellulose-based morphogenesis of extracellular material in animals.

Abstract
The NMR spectra of side-chain protons in proteins provide important information, not only about their structure and dynamics, but also about the mechanisms that regulate interactions between macromolecules. However, in the solid-state, these resonances are particularly difficult to resolve, even in relatively small proteins. We show that magic-angle-spinning (MAS) frequencies of 160 kHz, combined with a high magnetic field of 1200 MHz proton Larmor frequency, significantly improve their spectral resolution. We investigate in detail the gain for MAS frequencies between 110 and 160 kHz MAS for a model sample as well as for the hepatitis B viral capsid assembled from 120 core-protein (Cp) dimers. For both systems, we found a significantly improved spectral resolution of the side-chain region in the 1H-13C 2D spectra. The combination of 160 kHz MAS frequency with a magnetic field of 1200 MHz, allowed us to assign 61% of the aliphatic protons of Cp. The side-chain proton assignment opens up new possibilities for structural studies and further characterization of protein-protein or protein-nucleic acid interactions.

Abstract
Besides assembling nuclear pore complexes, the conduits of nuclear transport, many nucleoporins also contribute to chromatin organization and gene expression, with critical roles in development and pathologies. We previously reported that Nup133 and Seh1, two components of the Y-complex subassembly of the nuclear pore scaffold, are dispensable for mouse embryonic stem cell viability but required for their survival during neuroectodermal differentiation. Here, a transcriptomic analysis revealed that Nup133 regulates a subset of genes at early stages of neuroectodermal differentiation, including Lhx1 and Nup210L, encoding a newly validated nucleoporin. These genes are also misregulated in Nup133▵Mid neuronal progenitors, in which nuclear pore basket assembly is impaired. However, a four-fold reduction of Nup133, despite also affecting basket assembly, is not sufficient to alter Nup210L and Lhx1 expression. Finally, these two genes are also misregulated in Seh1-deficient neural progenitors only showing a mild reduction in nuclear pore density. Together these data reveal a shared function of Y-complex nucleoporins in gene regulation during neuroectodermal differentiation, apparently independent of nuclear pore basket integrity.

Abstract
Sorting nexins (SNXs) are a family of membrane-binding proteins known to play a critical role in regulating endocytic pathway sorting and endosomal membrane trafficking. Among them, SNX1 and SNX2 are members of the SNX-BAR subfamily and possess a membrane-curvature domain and a phosphoinositide-binding domain, which enables their stabilization at the phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI3P)-positive surface of endosomes. While their binding to PI3P-positive platforms facilitates interaction with endosomal partners and stabilization at the endosomal membrane, their SNX-BAR region is pivotal for generating membrane tubulation from endosomal compartments. In this context, their primary identified biological roles-and their partnership-are tightly associated with the retromer and endosomal SNX-BAR sorting complex for promoting exit 1 complex trafficking, facilitating the transport of cargoes from early endosomes to the secretory pathway. However, recent literature indicates that these proteins also possess biological functions in other aspects of endosomal features and sorting processes. Notably, SNX2 has been found to regulate endosome-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) contact sites through its interaction with VAP proteins at the ER membrane. Furthermore, data from our laboratory show that SNX1 and SNX2 are involved in the tubulation of early endosomes toward ER sites associated with autophagy initiation during starvation. These findings shed light on a novel role of SNXs in inter-organelle tethering and communication. In this concise review, we will explore the non-retromer functions of SNX1 and SNX2, specifically focusing on their involvement in endosomal membrane dynamics during stress sensing and autophagy-associated processes.

Abstract
Intermediate filaments (IFs) are involved in key cellular functions including polarization, migration, and protection against large deformations. These functions are related to their remarkable ability to extend without breaking, a capacity that should be determined by the molecular organization of subunits within filaments. However, this structure-mechanics relationship remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Here, using super-resolution microscopy (SRM), we show that vimentin filaments exhibit a ~49-nanometer axial repeat both in cells and in vitro. As unit-length filaments (ULFs) were measured at ~59 nanometers, this demonstrates a partial overlap of ULFs during filament assembly. Using an SRM-compatible stretching device, we also provide evidence that the extensibility of vimentin is due to the unfolding of its subunits and not to their sliding, thus establishing a direct link between the structural organization and its mechanical properties. Overall, our results pave the way for future studies of IF assembly, mechanical, and structural properties in cells.
