Mindbomb1 acts independently of it well-known role in Notch signalling to control the endocytic internalization of the Wnt co-receptor Ryk and thereby modulate the activity of the Planar Cell Polarity pathway that governs morphogenetic movements during embryonic development.
Analysis of a variant without lysine in the intracellular domain reveals a ubiquitylation-independent signalling activity of the DSL ligand Delta and novel functions of the Neuralized and Mindbomb1 E3-ligases during Notch signalling.

A rare example of direct transdifferentiation is discovered in zebrafish in which kidney epithelial cells change into an endocrine gland and undergo live-cell extrusion from the renal tubule.
Genetic analyses combining photoconvertible cell signalling reporters with gain- and loss-of function manipulations reveal a novel role for Notch signalling in controlling Hedgehog response in neural progenitor cells.
The retromer complex serves as a bomb squad to retrieve and disarm the potentially harmful pool of Notch receptors in a timely manner and thereby safeguards against brain tumor formation.
A gradient of Mib1-Dll4 within multinucleated muscle fibers maintains a continuum of metastable states within the muscle stem cell pool during tissue homeostasis.
Ciliogenesis is regulated by a certain group of centriolar satellite proteins, among which an E3 ligase is tethered by PCM1 to maintain the normal level of pro-ciliogenic protein on centrioles.
