    Extinction risk and conservation of the world’s sharks and rays

    Nicholas K Dulvy, Sarah L Fowler ... William T White
    One-quarter of the Chondrichthyes have an elevated risk of extinction, mainly as a result of overfishing.

    Developmental NMDA receptor dysregulation in the infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis mouse model

    Kevin P Koster, Walter Francesconi ... Akira Yoshii
    NMDA receptor function is regulated by protein depalmitoylation during visual cortical maturation and is dysfunctional in infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis.

    SPARK regulates AGC kinases central to the Toxoplasma gondii asexual cycle

    Alice L Herneisen, Michelle L Peters ... Sebastian Lourido
    Genetic and proteomic analyses reveal that the SPARK kinase, which is a regulator of key life-cycle transitions in the parasite Toxoplasma gondii, complexes with an elongin-like protein to regulate several important AGC-family kinases.

    Tracking multiple conformations occurring on angstrom-and-millisecond scales in single amino-acid-transporter molecules

    Yufeng Zhou, John H Lewis, Zhe Lu
    The present fluorescence polarization microscopy method enables the determination of the spatial orientations and lifetimes of a transporter protein in individual conformational states required for understanding the complex conformational mechanism underlying its function, applicable to investigation of other membrane proteins.

    LRG1 is an adipokine that promotes insulin sensitivity and suppresses inflammation

    Chan Hee J Choi, William Barr ... Paul Cohen
    Profiling the adipocyte secretome reveals LRG1 as a novel adipokine that promotes insulin sensitivity and modulates inflammation triggered by release of cytochrome c from dead/dying cells, describing a new pathway at the intersection of obesity and its systemic sequelae.

    METTL18-mediated histidine methylation of RPL3 modulates translation elongation for proteostasis maintenance

    Eriko Matsuura-Suzuki, Tadahiro Shimazu ... Shintaro Iwasaki
    METTL18 methylates histidine 245 of ribosomal protein RPL3, retards ribosome traversal at tyrosine codons, and thus ensures nascent protein folding for proteostasis maintenance.

    Cysteine dioxygenase 1 is a metabolic liability for non-small cell lung cancer

    Yun Pyo Kang, Laura Torrente ... Gina M DeNicola
    By increasing intracellular cysteine levels, NRF2 engages a tumor suppressive metabolic pathway mediated by cysteine dioxygenase 1.
