    Molecular basis of the PIP2-dependent regulation of CaV2.2 channel and its modulation by CaV β subunits

    Cheon-Gyu Park, Wookyung Yu, Byung-Chang Suh
    The anchoring properties of CaV β2 subunits to the plasma membrane determine the biophysical states of CaV2.2 channels by regulating PIP2 coupling to the nonspecific phospholipid-binding site in the I–II loop.

    The Arabidopsis SAC9 enzyme is enriched in a cortical population of early endosomes and restricts PI(4,5)P2 at the plasma membrane

    Alexis Lebecq, Mehdi Doumane ... Marie-Cécile Caillaud
    SAC9 prevents the accumulation of PI(4,5)P2 in intracellular compartments, thereby contributing to clathrin-mediated endocytosis at the plasma membrane and regulating the cortical localization of its protein partner SH3P2.

    Hypoxia controls plasma membrane targeting of polarity proteins by dynamic turnover of PI4P and PI(4,5)P2

    Juan Lu, Wei Dong ... Yang Hong
    When challenged by energetic stresses triggered by hypoxia and ATP inhibition, plasma membrane PI4P and PIP2 in cells undergo dramatic turnovers that have profound impact on many cellular processes including electrostatic PM targeting of numerous polybasic proteins.

    Structural organization and dynamics of FCHo2 docking on membranes

    Fatima El Alaoui, Ignacio Casuso ... Laura Picas
    The pioneering endocytic protein FCHo2 promotes clathrin-coated structures assembly via the formation of phosphoinositide-enriched domains at the boundary of cargo receptors.

    Conformational specificity of opioid receptors is determined by subcellular location irrespective of agonist

    Stephanie E Crilly, Wooree Ko ... Manojkumar A Puthenveedu
    A GPCR activated by the same agonist engages different conformational biosensors at different subcellular locations, suggesting that location-based conformations drive spatial encoding of signaling.

    Phosphoinositides regulate force-independent interactions between talin, vinculin, and actin

    Charlotte F Kelley, Thomas Litschel ... Naoko Mizuno
    In vitro reconstitution of the core focal adhesion proteins talin and vinculin with actin reveals lipid-dependent release of autoinhibition.

    Agonist-mediated switching of ion selectivity in TPC2 differentially promotes lysosomal function

    Susanne Gerndt, Cheng-Chang Chen ... Christian Grimm
    The lysosomal ion channel TPC2 emerges as an example of an ion channel in which ion selectivity is not fixed but rather agonist-selective.

    The Caenorhabditis elegans Tubby homolog dynamically modulates olfactory cilia membrane morphogenesis and phospholipid composition

    Danielle DiTirro, Alison Philbrook ... Piali Sengupta
    A Tubby protein regulates ciliary membrane morphology and phosphoinositide composition in a context-dependent manner.
