    The composition and organization of Drosophila heterochromatin are heterogeneous and dynamic

    Joel M Swenson, Serafin U Colmenares ... Gary H Karpen
    Identification of novel components and regulators of heterochromatin reveals a spatially complex and dynamic organization.

    The AP-2 complex has a specialized clathrin-independent role in apical endocytosis and polar growth in fungi

    Olga Martzoukou, Sotiris Amillis ... George Diallinas
    In filamentous fungi the AP-2 complex, which in mammals is an adaptor of clathrin-mediated endocytosis, is recruited to specific clathrin-independent apical endocytosis necessary for proper lipid maintenance and polar growth.

    YTH-RNA-binding protein prevents deleterious expression of meiotic proteins by tethering their mRNAs to nuclear foci

    Yuichi Shichino, Yoko Otsubo ... Akira Yamashita
    A YTH-domain protein Mmi1 prevents deleterious expression of meiotic proteins by tethering their mRNAs to nuclear foci.

    Topology-driven protein-protein interaction network analysis detects genetic sub-networks regulating reproductive capacity

    Tarun Kumar, Leo Blondel, Cassandra G Extavour
    Regulatory networks of genes controlling different aspects of insect reproduction have been identified by a systems-level analysis of quantitative phenotypic information obtained from the loss of individual cell signaling genes.

    Phosphorylation-mediated interactions with TOPBP1 couple 53BP1 and 9-1-1 to control the G1 DNA damage checkpoint

    Nicolas Bigot, Matthew Day ... Laurence H Pearl
    Two phosphorylation sites on 53BP1 are found to mediate interaction with TOPBP1-RAD9 and shown to be essential for assembling the G1 DNA damage checkpoint response apparatus.

    Glial insulin regulates cooperative or antagonistic Golden goal/Flamingo interactions during photoreceptor axon guidance

    Hiroki Takechi, Satoko Hakeda-Suzuki ... Takashi Suzuki
    Timely regulation of growth cone dynamics, including filopodial and cytoskeletal rearrangements through phosphorylation signals from glial cells, shapes the photoreceptor axon targeting.

    Uncoupling apical constriction from tissue invagination

    SeYeon Chung, Sangjoon Kim, Deborah J Andrew
    Spatially coordinated apical constriction occurs during Drosophila salivary gland invagination, but the salivary gland can form fully internalized and elongated tubes even when this process is completely blocked.

    Fog signaling has diverse roles in epithelial morphogenesis in insects

    Matthew Alan Benton, Nadine Frey ... Siegfried Roth
    Fog signaling with a narrow morphogenetic role in Drosophila has a deeply conserved function in epithelial morphogenesis across insects.

    Calcium-mediated actin reset (CaAR) mediates acute cell adaptations

    Pauline Wales, Christian E Schuberth ... Roland Wedlich-Söldner
    Calcium influx during acute cell stimulation triggers a global actin reset in mammalian cells, which is linked to plasma membrane repair and transcription and has implications for our understanding of cell migration, cancer, inflammation and cell stress response.

    Time-resolved mapping of genetic interactions to model rewiring of signaling pathways

    Florian Heigwer, Christian Scheeder ... Michael Boutros
    Genetic interaction analysis by combinatorial genetic perturbation and high-throughput imaging maps time- and context-dependent crosstalk between signaling pathways.
