    Homeodomain-interacting protein kinase maintains neuronal homeostasis during normal Caenorhabditis elegans aging and systemically regulates longevity from serotonergic and GABAergic neurons

    Maria I Lazaro-Pena, Adam B Cornwell ... Andrew V Samuelson
    The transcriptional cofactor HPK-1 (homeodomain-interacting protein kinase) functions as a key regulator of multiple proteostatic stress responses, each originating from discrete neuronal subtypes within the Caenorhabditis elegans nervous system to preserve neuronal health and maintain organismal proteostasis during normal aging.

    Precise regulation of the guidance receptor DMA-1 by KPC-1/Furin instructs dendritic branching decisions

    Xintong Dong, Hui Chiu ... Kang Shen
    The enzyme KPC-1/Furin down-regulates the DMA-1 receptor in neurons, allowing growing dendrites to migrate away from intermediate targets.

    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.

    Efficient protein targeting to the inner nuclear membrane requires Atlastin-dependent maintenance of ER topology

    Sumit Pawar, Rosemarie Ungricht ... Ulrike Kutay
    Efficient targeting of membrane proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to the inner nuclear membrane depends on GTP hydrolysis by Atlastin GTPases and their function in maintaining an interconnected topology of the ER network.

    Spinal premotor interneurons controlling antagonistic muscles are spatially intermingled

    Remi Ronzano, Sophie Skarlatou ... Marco Beato
    Multiple trans-synaptic tracing methods reveal that there is no spatial segregation between flexor and extensor premotor interneurons in the lumbar spinal cord.

    Phosphoproteomics reveals that Parkinson's disease kinase LRRK2 regulates a subset of Rab GTPases

    Martin Steger, Francesca Tonelli ... Matthias Mann
    Discovery of a physiological LRRK2 substrate and a new mechanism of Rab regulation should aid Parkinson’s research and the understanding of Rab function.

    EGF-dependent re-routing of vesicular recycling switches spontaneous phosphorylation suppression to EGFR signaling

    Martin Baumdick, Yannick Brüggemann ... Philippe IH Bastiaens
    Plasticity arising from autocatalytic receptor activation coexists with robustness in ligand responsiveness only by differential endosomal sorting of spontaneous and ligand-activated EGFR as distinct molecular states.
