    Glypicans define unique roles for the Hedgehog co-receptors boi and ihog in cytoneme-mediated gradient formation

    Eléanor Simon, Carlos Jiménez-Jiménez ... Isabel Guerrero
    The glypicans Dally-like protein and Dally reveal functional non-redundancy of the Hedgehog co-receptors Boi and Ihog through independent interactions and specifically regulate cytoneme dynamics via the Ihog FNIII domain, thus setting long-range signaling.

    Merging multi-omics with proteome integral solubility alteration unveils antibiotic mode of action

    Ritwik Maity, Xuepei Zhang ... Javier Sancho
    Like two peas in a pod but not exactly alike, similar molecules targeting the same bacterial protein behave differently, requiring systems biology and target deconvolution to gain better comprehension.

    A simple and effective F0 knockout method for rapid screening of behaviour and other complex phenotypes

    François Kroll, Gareth T Powell ... Jason Rihel
    Zebrafish knockouts can be generated in a few hours directly from wild-type eggs and are suitable for studying continuous traits, including behaviour.

    Recovering mixtures of fast-diffusing states from short single-particle trajectories

    Alec Heckert, Liza Dahal ... Xavier Darzacq
    Tracking proteins in live cells is challenging due to technical limitations and biological complexity, but approaches based in Bayesian nonparametrics stand a decent chance at recovering a target protein's dynamic profile from noisy data.

    Control of protein synthesis and memory by GluN3A-NMDA receptors through inhibition of GIT1/mTORC1 assembly

    María J Conde-Dusman, Partha N Dey ... Isabel Perez-Otaño
    Non-conventional NMDA receptors containing GluN3A subunits place constraints on the capacity of the brain to encode lasting memories through regulation of synaptic GIT1/mTOR signaling complexes.

    Vangl2 acts at the interface between actin and N-cadherin to modulate mammalian neuronal outgrowth

    Steve Dos-Santos Carvalho, Maite M Moreau ... Mireille Montcouquiol
    The core PCP protein acts as a internal brake to neuronal outgrowth.

    The switch-like expression of heme-regulated kinase 1 mediates neuronal proteostasis following proteasome inhibition

    Beatriz Alvarez-Castelao, Susanne tom Dieck ... Erin M Schuman
    In neurons, inhibition of the proteasome results in feedback inhibition of protein synthesis, mediated by heme-regulated kinase 1, which is optimized to act as both a sensor and an effector.

    Enabling X-ray free electron laser crystallography for challenging biological systems from a limited number of crystals

    Monarin Uervirojnangkoorn, Oliver B Zeldin ... William I Weis
    Post-refinement methods enable the use of X-ray free electron lasers for biological crystallography of systems in which sample quantity is a limitation.

    Syncytin-mediated open-ended membrane tubular connections facilitate the intercellular transfer of cargos including Cas9 protein

    Congyan Zhang, Randy Schekman
    A human endogenous fusogen, syncytin, which facilitates placental cell-cell fusion during early embryonic development, mediates the formation of open-ended membrane tubular connections between other cell types that efficiently promotes the intercellular transfer of cytoplasmic cargos including Cas9 protein and organelles.

    Modulation of dopamine D1 receptors via histamine H3 receptors is a novel therapeutic target for Huntington's disease

    David Moreno-Delgado, Mar Puigdellívol ... Peter J McCormick
    Progression of Huntington's disease can be slowed by altering dopamine signalling through the Dopamine 1 receptor - Histamine 3 receptor heteromer.
