A DNA origami nanospring introduces a force-sensing technology that enables measurement of motor protein stall forces without optical trapping, detecting force changes in kinesin KIF1A and its disease-related mutants.
Uev1A and APC/C degrade CycA to counteract oncogenic Ras, thereby protecting against cell death in polyploid Drosophila nurse cells and suppressing overgrowth in diploid germline and human colorectal tumor cells.
