    Exophilin-8 assembles secretory granules for exocytosis in the actin cortex via interaction with RIM-BP2 and myosin-VIIa

    Fushun Fan, Kohichi Matsunaga ... Tetsuro Izumi
    Analyses of knockout mice and a biochemical screen of interacting proteins reveal that exophilin-8 forms a large network of protein interactions to efficiently retain secretory granules beneath the plasma membrane for exocytosis.

    Increased cortical plasticity leads to memory interference and enhanced hippocampal-cortical interactions

    Irene Navarro Lobato, Adrian Aleman-Zapata ... Lisa Genzel
    Increasing cortical plasticity leads to better one-trial memory but more interference effects on semantic-like memory.

    Single-cell transcriptional dynamics of flavivirus infection

    Fabio Zanini, Szu-Yuan Pu ... Stephen R Quake
    A novel virus-inclusive single cell RNA-Seq approach enables identification of novel pro- and antiviral host factors in human cells in response to dengue and Zika virus infection.

    GDF15 is required for cold-induced thermogenesis and contributes to improved systemic metabolic health following loss of OPA1 in brown adipocytes

    Jayashree Jena, Luis Miguel García-Peña ... Renata O Pereira
    Deletion of optic atrophy 1 in brown adipose tissue induces secretion of growth differentiation factor 15 as a batokine to attenuate diet-induced obesity and improve glucose clearance, hepatic steatosis, and thermoregulation in mice by increasing energy expenditure.

    Quantitative glycoproteomics reveals cellular substrate selectivity of the ER protein quality control sensors UGGT1 and UGGT2

    Benjamin M Adams, Nathan P Canniff ... Daniel N Hebert
    Natural substrates of the central endoplasmic reticulum quality control glycoprotein sensors UDP-glucose:glycoproteinglucosyltransferase (UGGT)1 and UGGT2 were identified using a glycoproteomics approach and the role for their modification was explored.

    Concerted regulation of ISWI by an autoinhibitory domain and the H4 N-terminal tail

    Johanna Ludwigsen, Sabrina Pfennig ... Felix Mueller-Planitz
    The N-terminal domain of the chromatin remodeler ISWI contains previously uncharacterized conserved motifs that maintain structure, prevent ATP hydrolysis unless nucleosomes are bound, and confer H4-tail sensitivity without directly competing with the H4 tail.

    ISG15 counteracts Listeria monocytogenes infection

    Lilliana Radoshevich, Francis Impens ... Pascale Cossart
    The induction of ISG15 during bacterial infection can be independent of Type I Interferons and leads to an increase in the secretion of cytokines known to be critical for bacterial clearance.

    Covalent linkage of the DNA repair template to the CRISPR-Cas9 nuclease enhances homology-directed repair

    Natasa Savic, Femke CAS Ringnalda ... Gerald Schwank
    Linking the DNA repair template to the Cas9 ribonucleoprotein complex enhances homology-directed repair of the induced DNA double strand break.

    Structural and mutational analysis of the ribosome-arresting human XBP1u

    Vivekanandan Shanmuganathan, Nina Schiller ... Roland Beckmann
    Two integrated approaches shed light on how XBP1 arrest peptide induces intermediate level of translational pausing and identify hotspot positions to make it stronger.

    Mapping the conformational landscape of a dynamic enzyme by multitemperature and XFEL crystallography

    Daniel A Keedy, Lillian R Kenner ... James S Fraser
    The conformations of the enzyme cyclophilin A that are essential for its catalytic activity are temperature dependent and exhibit diverse responses, which is consistent with a complex energy landscape.
