Stoops E, Ferrin M, Jorgens D, Drubin D
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A . 2023 May; 120(22):e2302622120. PMID: 37216532
Forces generated by actin assembly assist membrane invagination during clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). The sequential recruitment of core endocytic proteins and regulatory proteins, and assembly of the actin network, are well...

Stoops E, Ferrin M, Jorgens D, Drubin D
bioRxiv . 2023 Feb; PMID: 36824809
Significance Statement: Actin filament assembly participates in many vesicle-forming processes. However, the underlying principles for how assembly is initiated and organized to effectively harness assembly forces remain elusive. To address...

Akamatsu M, Vasan R, Serwas D, Ferrin M, Rangamani P, Drubin D
Elife . 2020 Jan; 9. PMID: 31951196
Force generation by actin assembly shapes cellular membranes. An experimentally constrained multiscale model shows that a minimal branched actin network is sufficient to internalize endocytic pits against membrane tension. Around...

Ferrin M, Subramaniam A
Elife . 2017 May; 6. PMID: 28498106
Ribosome stalling on mRNAs can decrease protein expression. To decipher ribosome kinetics at stall sites, we induced ribosome stalling at specific codons by starving the bacterium for the cognate amino...

Chou S, Daugherty M, Peterson S, Biboy J, Yang Y, Jutras B, et al.
Nature . 2014 Dec; 518(7537):98-101. PMID: 25470067
Horizontal gene transfer allows organisms to rapidly acquire adaptive traits. Although documented instances of horizontal gene transfer from bacteria to eukaryotes remain rare, bacteria represent a rich source of new...

Whitney J, Chou S, Russell A, Biboy J, Gardiner T, Ferrin M, et al.
J Biol Chem . 2013 Jul; 288(37):26616-24. PMID: 23878199
Bacteria employ type VI secretion systems (T6SSs) to facilitate interactions with prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Despite the widespread identification of T6SSs among Gram-negative bacteria, the number of experimentally validated substrate...
