    Substrate specificity of TOR complex 2 is determined by a ubiquitin-fold domain of the Sin1 subunit

    Hisashi Tatebe, Shinichi Murayama ... Kazuhiro Shiozaki
    Sin1, a regulatory subunit of TOR protein kinase, has an evolutionarily conserved domain that specifically binds and recruits substrate for phosphorylation, and may represent a potential target for anti-cancer drugs.

    Structure of the active form of human origin recognition complex and its ATPase motor module

    Ante Tocilj, Kin Fan On ... Leemor Joshua-Tor
    The human Origin Replication Complex is shaped as a shallow corkscrew in a classic AAA+ organization reminiscent of clamp loader complexes with highly controlled ATPase activity as exemplified by Meier-Gorlin syndrome mutations.

    The metalloproteinase Papp-aa controls epithelial cell quiescence-proliferation transition

    Chengdong Liu, Shuang Li ... Cunming Duan
    Zinc metalloproteinase Papp-aa-mediated Igfbp5 proteolysis functions as a [Ca2+]-regulated molecular switch linking IGF signaling to epithelial cell proliferation and bone calcification.

    TOR Signaling: A central role for a region in the middle

    Edward Stuttfeld, Stefan Imseng, Timm Maier
    A domain called the 'Conserved region in the middle' is responsible for target recognition in the TORC2 complex in fission yeast and the mTORC2 complex in mammals.

    Development, calibration, and validation of a novel human ventricular myocyte model in health, disease, and drug block

    Jakub Tomek, Alfonso Bueno-Orovio ... Blanca Rodriguez
    A computer model of human cardiomyocyte was produced and validated on independent datasets, overcoming shortcomings of its predecessors, also yielding broadly relevant insights and results on major ionic currents.

    An evolutionarily young defense metabolite influences the root growth of plants via the ancient TOR signaling pathway

    Frederikke Gro Malinovsky, Marie-Louise F Thomsen ... Daniel J Kliebenstein
    Young defense metabolites are often believed to be solely outputs but evidence suggests that they can regulate ancient signaling pathways.

    Homeostasis of branched-chain amino acids is critical for the activity of TOR signaling in Arabidopsis

    Pengfei Cao, Sang-Jin Kim ... Federica Brandizzi
    Despite BCAAs being de novo-synthesized in chloroplasts, TOR activation by BCAAs is conserved in plants and triggers a re-organization of actin and actin-associated endomembranes.

    Clinical phenotypes in acute and chronic infarction explained through human ventricular electromechanical modelling and simulations

    Xin Zhou, Zhinuo Jenny Wang ... Blanca Rodriguez
    Human-based electromechanical simulations reveal electrocardiogram biomarkers are better indicators of pro-arrhythmic substrate after myocardial infarction than ejection fraction.
