Preprints:
Biochemistry & Cell Metabolism
Solubilization of Membrane Proteins using designed protein WRAPS
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.04.636539v1
A new method to express and purify recombinant membrane proteins outside of a detergent- or membrane environment by fusing target membrane protein to a custom-designed protein coat that shields the hydrophobic transmembrane region.

VDAC isoforms play distinct roles in modulating metabolism and maintaining mitochondrial function
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.20.639106v1.full
Individual knock-outs of all three isoforms of the mitochondrial outer membrane channel VDAC in HeLa cells show that each isoform has a different impact on the mitochondrial proteome and on cellular metabolism. Surprisingly, only VDAC3 promotes mitochondrial respiration.

Cell organelles and organisation
Desmoplakin tail domain position in the desmosomal plaque is isoform dependent
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.03.636241v1
This preprint looks at the influence of different desmoplakin isoforms on desmosome organisation. These isoforms have different lengths, due to differences in lengths of their Rod domains. Rod domain length has been suspected to influence protein function, e.g. of the spectraplakin family, and this preprint provides some answers in this regard.

On-demand delivery of fibulin-1 enables repeated basement membrane stretching
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.02.636120v1
This preprint emphasizes the crucial role of fibulin-1, a basement membrane (BM) component, which, through its interaction with collagen type IV, supports the spermatheca, a structure that undergoes repeated cycles of BM stretching and expansion during ovulation. The targeted delivery of fibulin-1 specifically during ovulation ensures the integrity and shape of the spermatheca.
Picked by: Sristilekha Nath
Dynamic regulation of Sec24C by phosphorylation and O-GlcNAcylation during cell cycle progression
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.12.638000v1.full
The authors identify changes in post translational modifications of the COPII coat protein Sec24C upon mitotic entry. These modifications relocalise Sec24C away from ER exit sites and therefore likely play a role in halting secretion and aiding equal distribution of the endomembrane system between daughter cells during division.

Polarity reversal of stable microtubules during neuronal development
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.07.636940v1
The authors of this preprint investigate the establishment of characteristic microtuble polarity of dendrites. They find that early in development, microtubules can exchanged between dendrites and loop back on themselves to correct their orientation.
Picked by: Matthew Davies
Keratins coordinate tissue spreading by balancing spreading forces with tissue material properties
https://doi.org/10.1101/2025.02.14.638262
The authors identify a keratin-mediated mechanism regulating tissue spreading in zebrafish embryos. During epiboly, actomyosin-driven stress build-up triggers keratin network accumulation, increasing viscosity to maintain tissue integrity and balance forces within the spreading tissue.

Pex30-dependent membrane contacts sites maintain ER lipid homeostasis
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.12.637848v1.full
This preprint characterises previously enigmatic domains of the yeast ER-resident protein Pex30 found at ER membrane contact sites with various other organelles. Using a combination of in vivo, in vitro and in silico experiments, the authors show that Pex30 is required for phosphatidic acid homeostasis and identify phosphorylation sites that mediate membrane contact site formation based on the metabolic state of the cells.

The neuron-intrinsic membrane skeleton is required for motor neuron integrity throughout lifespan
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.23.639536v1
The authors of this preprint study the requirement of the membrane periodic skeleton in C. elegans motor neurons throughout their life. They find that loss of its integral component, Beta-Spectrin, at all stages of life causes axon breakage and degeneration, revealing a new means to screen for factors required for axon degeneration and maintenance.
Picked by: Matthew Davies
Genetically encoded reporters of actin filament organization in living cells and tissues
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2024.04.26.591305v2
Existing actin probes only poorly represent the organisation of actin filaments. In this preprint, the authors generate new probes that allow distinction of actin filaments via fluorescence polarisation microscopy. This marks a significant advance in actin visualisation.

Cell signalling, migration and mechanosensing
ERM proteins support perinuclear actin rim formation
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.22.639617v1
This preprint investigates how ERM proteins link actin filaments to the nuclear envelope, which is important for cell migration, nuclear positioning, and transcriptional control. The study finds that ERM proteins localize to the nuclear envelope and support the formation of the perinuclear actin rim in melanoma cells.
Picked by: Felipe Del Valle Batalla
Axonal Mechanotransduction Drives Cytoskeletal Responses to Physiological Mechanical Forces
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.11.637689v1
This preprint highlights the role of the mechanosensitive protein Talin, the small GTPase RhoA, and actomyosin activity in the axon to maintain its integrity in the face of tension due to physical movements (muscle contractions). Also, in vivo live imaging of microtubules at single polymer resolution!
Picked by: Girish Kale
Stiffening cells with light
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.01.30.635790v1.abstract?%3Fcollection=
This study reveals a direct relationship between fluorescence excitation and cell mechanical properties, highlighting that the stiffness of T cells can be rapidly increased by exposing to excitation light. Also propose “photostiffening” as a new method for rapidly quantifying phototoxicity.

Ca2+ increases cardiac muscle viscoelasticity independent of active force development
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.26.640328v1
This preprint looks at a secondary role of Ca2+ in increasing the viscoelasticity of cardiac muscles.
Picked by: Girish Kale
Dynamic and Biphasic Regulation of Cell Migration by Ras
https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.13.638204v1.full
This preprint identifies how Ras GTPase activity biphasically regulates cell migration, with excessive and insufficient activity impairing movement. This finding highlights the need for nuanced therapeutic targeting in cancer treatment.

Peer Review in Biomedical Sciences
Communication of scientific knowledge has changed dramatically in recent decades and the public perception of scientific discoveries depends on the peer review process of articles published in scientific journals. Preprints are key vehicles for the dissemination of scientific discoveries, but they are still not properly recognized by the scientific community since peer review is very limited. On the other hand, peer review is very heterogeneous and a fundamental aspect to improve it is to train young scientists on how to think critically and how to evaluate scientific knowledge in a professional way. Thus, this course aims to: i) train students on how to perform peer review of scientific manuscripts in a professional manner; ii) develop students' critical thinking; iii) contribute to the appreciation of preprints as important vehicles for the dissemination of scientific knowledge without restrictions; iv) contribute to the development of students' curricula, as their opinions will be published and indexed on the preLights platform. The evaluations will be based on qualitative analyses of the oral presentations of preprints in the field of biomedical sciences deposited in the bioRxiv server, of the critical reports written by the students, as well as of the participation of the students during the preprints discussions.
