      Title: Mutually exclusive dendritic arbors in C. elegans neurons share a common architecture and convergent molecular cues.
    2. The experiments suggest that HPO-30/Claudin localizes the DMA-1/LRR-TM receptor on polymodal somatosensory neuron dendrites, which in turn can control dendrite patterning by directly modulating F-actin dynamics through TIAM-1/GEF.
      Title: TIAM-1/GEF can shape somatosensory dendrites independently of its GEF activity by regulating F-actin localization.
    3. The authors show that KPC-1, a Caenorhabditis elegans furin homolog, regulates the level of the branching receptor DMA-1 on dendrites by targeting it to late endosomes.

    4. dendritic branch distribution depends on the balance between the molecular motors UNC-116 and dynein, and we propose that RAB-10 regulates dendrite morphology by balancing the activity of these motors to the transmembrane receptor DMA-1.
