    Concerted action of kinesins KIF5B and KIF13B promotes efficient secretory vesicle transport to microtubule plus ends

    Andrea Serra-Marques, Maud Martin ... Anna Akhmanova
    The function and distribution of kinesin motors on exocytotic vesicles is dissected and visualized through a combination of gene knockout experiments, high-resolution microscopy and advanced data analysis.

    Structures of TorsinA and its disease-mutant complexed with an activator reveal the molecular basis for primary dystonia

    F Esra Demircioglu, Brian A Sosa ... Thomas U Schwartz
    High resolution structures of the essential human AAA+ ATPase TorsinA and its disease mutant in complex with an activator reveal details of the interaction that will guide drug design and further functional characterization.

    T-follicular helper cells are epigenetically poised to transdifferentiate into T-regulatory type 1 cells

    Josep Garnica, Patricia Sole ... Pere Santamaria
    T-regulatory type 1 cells inherit a broad repertoire of epigenetic marks from T-follicular helper T-cells, offering new insights into the developmental biology of this subset.

    Preacinetobactin not acinetobactin is essential for iron uptake by the BauA transporter of the pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii

    Lucile Moynié, Ilaria Serra ... James H Naismith
    The pathogen Acinetobacter baumannii recognises preacinetobactin not acinetobactin, yet appears likely to translocate both compounds through a mixed complex.

    The bacterial quorum sensing signal 2’-aminoacetophenone rewires immune cell bioenergetics through the Ppargc1a/Esrra axis to mediate tolerance to infection

    Arijit Chakraborty, Arunava Bandyopadhaya ... Laurence G Rahme
    The Pseudomonas aeruginosa secreted signaling molecule 2'-aminoacetophenone modulates cellular immunometabolism to promote persistence in infected tissues.

    A KRAS-directed transcriptional silencing pathway that mediates the CpG island methylator phenotype

    Ryan W Serra, Minggang Fang ... Michael R Green
    A pathway directed by the KRAS oncoprotein leads to aberrant hypermethylation and transcriptional silencing of many genes including tumor suppressors, thereby promoting tumor development.

    Cell Division: Shining light on spindle positioning

    Andrea Serra-Marques, Sophie Dumont
    Optogenetic approaches are leading to a better understanding of the forces that determine the plane of cell division.

    Sensing of nutrients by CPT1C regulates late endosome/lysosome anterograde transport and axon growth

    Marta Palomo-Guerrero, Rut Fadó ... Núria Casals
    The pseudoenzyme CPT1C is able to sense changes in intracellular malonyl-CoA levels caused by nutrients or energy stress and regulate late endosomes/lysosomes anterograde transport, necessary for proper axon growth.

    Calcium dependence of neurotransmitter release at a high fidelity synapse

    Abdelmoneim Eshra, Hartmut Schmidt ... Stefan Hallermann
    The Ca2+-dependence of vesicle priming, fusion, and replenishment at cerebellar mossy fiber boutons show a prominent Ca2+-dependent priming step, a shallow non-saturating dose-response curve up to 50 µM, and little Ca2+-dependence of sustained vesicle replenishment.
