Balancing cell polarity PARts through dephosphorylation

How cells spatially organize their plasma membrane, cytoskeleton, and cytoplasm remains a central question for cell biologists. In this issue of JCB, Calvi et al. (2022. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202201048) identify PP1 phosphatases as key regulators of C. elegans anterior–posterior...

Sumario:How cells spatially organize their plasma membrane, cytoskeleton, and cytoplasm remains a central question for cell biologists. In this issue of JCB, Calvi et al. (2022. J. Cell Biol. https://doi.org/10.1083/jcb.202201048) identify PP1 phosphatases as key regulators of C. elegans anterior–posterior polarity, by counterbalancing aPKC-mediated phosphorylation of PAR-2.
