    Structural basis of ribosomal peptide macrocyclization in plants

    Joel Haywood, Jason W Schmidberger ... Joshua S Mylne
    The first crystal structure of an active plant asparaginyl endopeptidase reveals a tetrahedral intermediate state in its active site, which may help to explain why these enzymes have been independently recruited to perform peptide macrocyclization.

    Selective sorting of microRNAs into exosomes by phase-separated YBX1 condensates

    Xiao-Man Liu, Liang Ma, Randy Schekman
    Condensation of cytosolic protein YBX1 into processing bodies reveals mechanisms for efficient and selective sorting of proteins and their cognate microRNAs into exosomes.

    CD95/Fas ligand mRNA is toxic to cells

    Will Putzbach, Ashley Haluck-Kangas ... Marcus E Peter
    The mRNA of the apoptosis inducing death ligand CD95L/FasL kills cancer cells through RNAi after conversion into small RNAs that are loaded into the RNA-induced Silencing Complex.

    Y-box protein 1 is required to sort microRNAs into exosomes in cells and in a cell-free reaction

    Matthew J Shurtleff, Morayma M Temoche-Diaz ... Randy Schekman
    A cell-free reaction that reconstitutes the selective sorting of a miRNA into exosomes reveals an RNA-binding protein, YBX1, as a critical sorting factor.

    An auto-inhibited state of protein kinase G and implications for selective activation

    Rajesh Sharma, Jeong Joo Kim ... Choel Kim
    The crystal structure of a mammalian protein kinase G reveals contacts between the regulatory and catalytic domains, indicates how cGMP binding alters domain conformations and thus domain:domain interactions, and informs a model for enzyme auto-inhibition and cooperative activation.

    Microtubule-dependent ribosome localization in C. elegans neurons

    Kentaro Noma, Alexandr Goncharov ... Yishi Jin
    The utility of split GFP for tissue-specific visualization of ribosomes in live Caenorhabditis elegans demonstrates the link between ribosomes and microtubules.
