    A Fyn biosensor reveals pulsatile, spatially localized kinase activity and signaling crosstalk in live mammalian cells

    Ananya Mukherjee, Randhir Singh ... Akash Gulyani
    Unique biosensor design and protein-engineering enables direct visualization of the active form of Fyn kinase with high specificity, minimal perturbation and shows cellular signaling to be compartmentalized and pulsatile.

    Single cell analysis reveals multiple requirements for zinc in the mammalian cell cycle

    Maria N Lo, Leah J Damon ... Amy E Palmer
    Zinc affects the proliferation-quiescence cell fate decision of mammalian cells, demonstrating that micronutrients can regulate the cell cycle.

    Cdc7 activates replication checkpoint by phosphorylating the Chk1-binding domain of Claspin in human cells

    Chi-Chun Yang, Hiroyuki Kato ... Hisao Masai
    Cdc7 and CK1g1 independently and additively phosphorylate the Chk1-binding domain of claspin to activate replication checkpoint with differential contribution of each kinase in different cell types.

    Mechanisms of substrate recognition by a typhoid toxin secretion-associated muramidase

    Tobias Geiger, Maria Lara-Tejero ... Jorge E Galán
    Biochemical analyses and the crystal structure of TtsA reveal fundamental insight into the mechanisms by which this muramidase recognizes its peptidoglycan substrate to facilitate typhoid toxin secretion.

    State-dependent brainstem ensemble dynamics and their interactions with hippocampus across sleep states

    Tomomi Tsunematsu, Amisha A Patel ... Shuzo Sakata
    Sub-second pontine waves functionally interact with hippocampal population activity in a state-dependent manner across sleep states, while brainstem ensemble dynamics exhibit slow, long-lasting state-predictive activity.

    Muscle function and homeostasis require cytokine inhibition of AKT activity in Drosophila

    Katrin Kierdorf, Fabian Hersperger ... Marc S Dionne
    A cytokine partly derived from macrophages is required to promote normal muscle health and metabolism by inhibiting the activity of the insulin signalling pathway in the fruitfly Drosophila melanogaster.

    The tumor suppressor PTPRK promotes ZNRF3 internalization and is required for Wnt inhibition in the Spemann organizer

    Ling-Shih Chang, Minseong Kim ... Christof Niehrs
    Two cancer related proteins, tyrosine phosphatase PTPRK and ubiquitin ligase ZNRF3, interact to downregulate Wnt receptors, thereby regulating Spemann organizer function during Xenopus development.
