    A quantitative inventory of yeast P body proteins reveals principles of composition and specificity

    Wenmin Xing, Denise Muhlrad ... Michael K Rosen
    Quantitative analyses of yeast P bodies reveals a small number of highly concentrated proteins and many weakly concentrated proteins, suggesting that the compartments are compositionally simpler than previously thought.

    Transcriptome maps of general eukaryotic RNA degradation factors

    Salma Sohrabi-Jahromi, Katharina B Hofmann ... Patrick Cramer
    Mapping of 30 general RNA degradation factors onto the yeast transcriptome provides the global distribution of factors for RNA turnover and surveillance in a eukaryotic cell.

    S-acylation by ZDHHC20 targets ORAI1 channels to lipid rafts for efficient Ca2+ signaling by Jurkat T cell receptors at the immune synapse

    Amado Carreras-Sureda, Laurence Abrami ... Nicolas Demaurex
    ORAI1 ion channel lipid modification is required for a proper immune synapse formation and T cell activation.

    The novel SH3 domain protein Dlish/CG10933 mediates fat signaling in Drosophila by binding and regulating Dachs

    Yifei Zhang, Xing Wang ... Seth S Blair
    The Fat-regulated scaffolding protein Dlish controls the activity, levels and cortical localization of Warts-inhibiting myosin Dachs by linking Dachs to a critical Dachs regulator, the DHHC palmitoyltransferase Approximated, and to the Fat-mediated regulation of Dachs stability.

    A conserved RNA degradation complex required for spreading and epigenetic inheritance of heterochromatin

    Gergana Shipkovenska, Alexander Durango ... Danesh Moazed
    Genetic and biochemical studies show that a conserved ribosome biogenesis complex also localizes to heterochromatin, where it triggers RNA degradation and promotes the spreading and epigenetic inheritance of histone methylation.

    Neural mechanisms of parasite-induced summiting behavior in ‘zombie’ Drosophila

    Carolyn Elya, Danylo Lavrentovich ... Benjamin de Bivort
    In zombie fruit flies, Entomophthora muscae-elicited summiting behavior is mediated by blood-borne factors and the host circadian-neurosecretory network.

    TDP-43 maximizes nerve conduction velocity by repressing a cryptic exon for paranodal junction assembly in Schwann cells

    Kae-Jiun Chang, Ira Agrawal ... Jonah R Chan
    Glial TDP-43 regulates splicing and expression of neurofascin and is required for proper assembly and maintenance of paranodal axoglial junctions.

    Molecular architecture of the 90S small subunit pre-ribosome

    Qi Sun, Xing Zhu ... Keqiong Ye
    The nearly complete architecture of the gigantic 90S precursor of small ribosomal subunit is determined by cryo-EM.

    P2RY14 cAMP signaling regulates Schwann cell precursor self-renewal, proliferation, and nerve tumor initiation in a mouse model of neurofibromatosis

    Jennifer Patritti Cram, Jianqiang Wu ... Nancy Ratner
    In a mouse model of neurofibromatosis type 1, the purinergic receptor P2RY14 is a key regulator of Schwann cell precursor self-renewal and proliferation, of neurofibroma tumor initiation and of mouse survival.

    Hedgehog signaling is required for endomesodermal patterning and germ cell development in the sea anemone Nematostella vectensis

    Cheng-Yi Chen, Sean A McKinney ... Matthew C Gibson
    The dependence of Nematostella germ cell specification on zygotic Hedgehog pathway activity supports the hypothesis that the eumetazoan common ancestor segregated its germline by inductive signals rather than maternal determinants.
