    Genome editing in the unicellular holozoan Capsaspora owczarzaki suggests a premetazoan role for the Hippo pathway in multicellular morphogenesis

    Jonathan E Phillips, Maribel Santos ... Duojia Pan
    Genome editing in a close unicellular relative of animals suggests a premetazoan function of the Hippo pathway effector YAP/TAZ/Yorkie in the regulation of cytoskeletal dynamics and multicellular morphogenesis but not proliferation.

    The Hippo kinase cascade regulates a contractile cell behavior and cell density in a close unicellular relative of animals

    Jonathan E Phillips, Duojia Pan
    Genetic analysis of Hippo pathway kinases in a close unicellular relative of animals suggests an ancestral role of this ancient pathway in regulating cytoskeletal dynamics and density of multicellular aggregates.

    Molecular structure of human KATP in complex with ATP and ADP

    Kenneth Pak Kin Lee, Jue Chen, Roderick MacKinnon
    MgADP binding to the high-affinity 'consensus' ATPase active site of SUR1 and remodeling of the L0-loop (lasso region) overrides tonic ATP inhibition of KATP channels.

    Oligodendrocyte-lineage cell exocytosis and L-type prostaglandin D synthase promote oligodendrocyte development and myelination

    Lin Pan, Amelia Trimarco ... Ye Zhang
    Oligodendrocyte-lineage cells secrete L-type prostaglandin synthase in an autocrine loop to promote oligodendrocyte development and myelination.

    YAP is essential for mechanical force production and epithelial cell proliferation during lung branching morphogenesis

    Chuwen Lin, Erica Yao ... Pao-Tien Chuang
    The control of local cell properties such as epithelial cell number and mechanical force production by Hippo signaling is a major determinant of lung branching.

    Stimulation of hypothalamic oxytocin neurons suppresses colorectal cancer progression in mice

    Susu Pan, Kaili Yin ... Guo Zhang
    Assessments using chemogenetic and pharmacological approaches reveal that modulation of the activities of oxytocin neurons in the hypothalamus of the central nervous system could inhibit colorectal cancer progression in mice.

    A comparative study of the cryo-EM structures of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and human anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C)

    Ester Vazquez-Fernandez, Jing Yang ... David Barford
    The yeast APC/C cryo-EM structure reveals substantial similarities with the human APC/C structure but also important differences in mechanisms of phosphorylation-dependent regulation and activation by coactivators.

    Non-rapid eye movement sleep and wake neurophysiology in schizophrenia

    Nataliia Kozhemiako, Jun Wang ... Jen Q Pan
    Multiple non-redundant features of non-rapid eye movement sleep are altered in schizophrenia and largely independent of waking electrophysiological abnormalities, supporting the promise of neuropsychiatric disease biomarkers based on a precise dissection of the sleep.

    A metabolic switch controls intestinal differentiation downstream of Adenomatous polyposis coli (APC)

    Imelda T Sandoval, Richard Glenn C Delacruz ... David A Jones
    The tumor suppressor APC regulates a metabolic program that drives normal intestinal differentiation in zebrafish.

    The master cell cycle regulator APC-Cdc20 regulates ciliary length and disassembly of the primary cilium

    Weiping Wang, Tao Wu, Marc W Kirschner
    The anaphase promoting complex (APC) has an essential role in ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis in the disassembly of cilia.
