(04 Apr) We have the first video of a plant cell wall being built

Plant cells without a cell wall are fragile, so it’s hard to image its construction.

Has anyone ever gotten questions or issues because their #smartphone were in relatively close #proximity but there was e.g. a wall separating two areas entirely? Essentially because #cell signals penetrate such barriers? So they don't register in certain (remote) measurements?

Seems #afadin (which likes #tricellular junctions) does have a role to stabilize #Ecadherin #cell-cell #adhesion and is sensitive to #actin curvature.
This may be of interest to #vertexModel fans and beyond (we have this paper on how turnover of #Ecadherin adhesion can modulate #cellIntercalation dynamics, journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol)

T-Mobile just made Starlink Upgrade free for iPhone & Android.

T-Mobile’s Starlink-powered direct-to-cell satellite messaging service is now open for anyone in the US to try for free. The service will be limited to text messaging at first but the company hopes to have some apps and even limited multimedia support ready by the time it goes live this summer.
