Highlights

  • Deep mutational scanning

    High-resolution approach has been used to assess the effect of more than 6000 protein-coding variants in a G protein-coupled receptor associated with obesity.

  • Cell mechanics and metastasis

    The discovery of a pro-invasive mechanotransduction pathway driven by cell crowding suggests that an ion channel called TRPV4 may be a promising therapeutic target for inhibiting metastasis.
