    Vibrator and PI4KIIIα govern neuroblast polarity by anchoring non-muscle myosin II

    Chwee Tat Koe, Ye Sing Tan ... Hongyan Wang
    Vibrator and PI4KIIIα that stimulate the synthesis of PI(4)P anchor non-muscle myosin II RLC (Sqh) to the plasma membrane and conversely Sqh associates with PI(4)P and facilitates its membrane localization during asymmetric division of neuroblasts.

    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.

    Boundary cells restrict dystroglycan trafficking to control basement membrane sliding during tissue remodeling

    Shelly TH McClatchey, Zheng Wang ... David R Sherwood
    A Notch-mediated signaling pathway upregulates a Sec14-GOLD phosphopholipid binding protein that promotes a morphogenetic process important in tissue remodeling and renewal.

    Syntaxin 17 recruitment to mature autophagosomes is temporally regulated by PI4P accumulation

    Saori Shinoda, Yuji Sakai ... Noboru Mizushima
    The autophagosomal membrane becomes negatively charged during maturation due to the accumulation of PI4P, leading to the recruitment of syntaxin 17, which is required for autophagosome-lysosome fusion.

    CHIP as a membrane-shuttling proteostasis sensor

    Yannick Kopp, Wei-Han Lang ... R Martin Vabulas
    The mechanism is revealed that connects the protein degradation machinery to cellular membrane-bound compartments during proteostasis stress in mammalian cells.

    A conserved morphogenetic mechanism for epidermal ensheathment of nociceptive sensory neurites

    Nan Jiang, Jeffrey P Rasmussen ... Jay Z Parrish
    Epidermal cells in vertebrates and invertebrates ensheath portions of somatosensory neurons via a conserved morphogenetic mechanism, and this ensheathment regulates morphogenesis and function of Drosophila nociceptive neurons.

    A role of OCRL in clathrin-coated pit dynamics and uncoating revealed by studies of Lowe syndrome cells

    Ramiro Nández, Daniel M Balkin ... Pietro De Camilli
    Studies of Lowe syndrome patient cells, which lack the inositol 5-phosphatase OCRL, suggest that a defect in endocytosis plays a role in the pathological manifestations of the disease.

    A postsynaptic PI3K-cII dependent signaling controller for presynaptic homeostatic plasticity

    Anna G Hauswirth, Kevin J Ford ... Graeme W Davis
    A screen encompassing all kinases and phosphatases reveals that PI3K-cII, PI3K-cIII and Rab11-dependent recycling endosomes comprise a novel, postsynaptic 'signaling controller' that is part of an integrated, trans-synaptic signaling system necessary for presynaptic homeostatic plasticity.

    S-acylation of NLRP3 provides a nigericin sensitive gating mechanism that controls access to the Golgi

    Daniel M Williams, Andrew A Peden
    Recruitment of NLRP3 to the Golgi is controlled by the reversible addition of a lipid anchor adjacent to the polybasic region.

    A Rho signaling network links microtubules to PKD controlled carrier transport to focal adhesions

    Stephan A Eisler, Filipa Curado ... Angelika Hausser
    The small GTPase Rho connects GPCR signaling with PKD activity at TGN membranes and consequently anterograde trafficking to focal adhesions.
