    AMP-activated protein kinase fortifies epithelial tight junctions during energetic stress via its effector GIV/Girdin

    Nicolas Aznar, Arjun Patel ... Pradipta Ghosh
    An effector of AMPK is essential for the kinase and its pharmacological activators, including Metformin, to strengthen cell-cell junctions and preserve epithelial cell polarity and barrier functions in the face of energetic stress, as well as to suppress oncogenesis.

    Metabolic regulation of misfolded protein import into mitochondria

    Yuhao Wang, Linhao Ruan ... Rong Li
    The conserved AMP-activated protein kinase inhibits mitochondrial import of misfolded proteins and helps preserve mitochondrial and cellular fitness under proteotoxic stress.

    A genetic variant of fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) exacerbates hormone-mediated orexigenic feeding in mice

    Georgia Balsevich, Gavin N Petrie ... Matthew N Hill
    A genetic knock-in mouse model reveals that the endocrine state governs the effect of the common fatty acid amide hydrolase C385A variant on body weight through a hypothalamic-mediated mechanism.

    Neuronal TORC1 modulates longevity via AMPK and cell nonautonomous regulation of mitochondrial dynamics in C. elegans

    Yue Zhang, Anne Lanjuin ... William B Mair
    Modulating the nutrient sensor TORC1 only in neurons in C. elegans is sufficient to regulate systemic longevity via inter-tissue signals that remodel mitochondria networks in non neuronal cells.

    High and stable ATP levels prevent aberrant intracellular protein aggregation in yeast

    Masak Takaine, Hiromi Imamura, Satoshi Yoshida
    The first demonstration that cellular ATP homeostasis suppresses high volatility of cellular ATP levels to ensure proteostasis that prevents accumulation of cytotoxic protein aggregation.

    Yeast Nuak1 phosphorylates histone H3 threonine 11 in low glucose stress by the cooperation of AMPK and CK2 signaling

    Seunghee Oh, Jaehyoun Lee ... Jerry L Workman
    Yeast Nuak1 is an AMPK and CK2 dependent H3 T11 kinase.

    Continuous sensing of nutrients and growth factors by the mTORC1-TFEB axis

    Breanne Sparta, Nont Kosaisawe ... John G Albeck
    Single-cell data on cell signaling responses to nutrient variation enable quantitative models of cellular control over protein synthesis, formalizing the concept of mTOR as a homeostatic controller of cellular metabolism.

    An AMPK-dependent, non-canonical p53 pathway plays a key role in adipocyte metabolic reprogramming

    Hong Wang, Xueping Wan ... Libin Liu
    A non-canonical p53 function in adipocyte plays a critical role in energy homeostasis and is involved in obesity-associated metabolic dysfunctions.
