    The termination of UHRF1-dependent PAF15 ubiquitin signaling is regulated by USP7 and ATAD5

    Ryota Miyashita, Atsuya Nishiyama ... Makoto Nakanishi
    The cooperative action of PAF15 deubiquitylation by USP7 and its dissociation from chromatin by ATAD5 regulates proper PAF15Ub2 signaling termination, which is important for replication and maintenance of DNA methylation.

    Mechanically transduced immunosorbent assay to measure protein-protein interactions

    Christopher J Petell, Kathyrn Randene ... Joshua P Steimel
    METRIS is a method that reports a mechanical readout of protein-protein interactions and due to its unique properties, it will allow many protein-protein interactions to be quantitatively measured easily that are currently laborious to measure with conventional methods.

    Coevolution of the CDCA7-HELLS ICF-related nucleosome remodeling complex and DNA methyltransferases

    Hironori Funabiki, Isabel E Wassing ... Thomas Carroll
    Coevolution analysis suggests that a DNA methylation-related role for the nucleosome remodeling ATPase HELLS and its activator CDCA7 was broadly inherited from the last eukaryotic common ancestor.

    The β-hairpin of 40S exit channel protein Rps5/uS7 promotes efficient and accurate translation initiation in vivo

    Jyothsna Visweswaraiah, Yvette Pittman ... Alan G Hinnebusch
    A structural element of mRNA exit channel protein Rps5 performs a critical role in start codon recognition during translation initiation by stabilizing initiator tRNA binding to the pre-initiation complex.
