    The heteromeric PC-1/PC-2 polycystin complex is activated by the PC-1 N-terminus

    Kotdaji Ha, Mai Nobuhara ... Markus Delling
    Soluble fragments cleaved from the N-terminus of PC-1 activate the PC-1/PC-2 heteromeric polycystin channel, describing for the first time that the N-terminus itself is an endogenous ligand.

    Vicia faba SV channel VfTPC1 is a hyperexcitable variant of plant vacuole Two Pore Channels

    Jinping Lu, Ingo Dreyer ... Rainer Hedrich
    Polymorphic residues of a vacuolar Ca2+ sensor site in TPC1 channels differ between species of Brassicacea and Fabaceae and lead to distinct TPC1 gating behavior.

    Sweet neurons inhibit texture discrimination by signaling TMC-expressing mechanosensitive neurons in Drosophila

    Shun-Fan Wu, Ya-Long Ja ... Chung-Hui Yang
    Drosophila use distinct sensory mechanisms to detect and integrate the same tactile and taste information in two decision-making tasks that serve two different purposes.

    TPR is required for cytoplasmic chromatin fragment formation during senescence

    Bethany M Bartlett, Yatendra Kumar ... Wendy A Bickmore
    Evidence is provided suggesting that heterochromatin re-organisation during cell senescence can compromise the structural integrity of the nucleus, leading to activation of an inflammatory process.

    Intracellular cholesterol trafficking is dependent upon NPC2 interaction with lysobisphosphatidic acid

    Leslie A McCauliff, Annette Langan ... Judith Storch
    Sterol kinetics and cell-based assays reveal a heretofore unknown step in cholesterol trafficking through the endolysosomal compartment, involving a direct functional interaction between NPC2 and lysosbisphosphatidic acid.

    Ezrin defines TSC complex activation at endosomal compartments through EGFR–AKT signaling

    Giuliana Giamundo, Daniela Intartaglia ... Ivan Conte
    Ezrin controls endo-lysosomal signaling by maintaining TSC inhibition through EGFR signaling, activating mTORC1, and inhibiting lysosomal function, unveiling a critical endosome–lysosome network essential for autophagy and cellular homeostasis.

    Brain Development: The impact of light during the night

    Sophia TC Leung, R Anne McKinney, Alanna J Watt
    Exposing chicks to one hour of light during the night disrupts the releaseof a hormone that is needed by cells in the developing brain to survive.

    A novel GSK3-regulated APC:Axin interaction regulates Wnt signaling by driving a catalytic cycle of efficient βcatenin destruction

    Mira I Pronobis, Nasser M Rusan, Mark Peifer
    A new dynamic mechanistic model explains how the destruction complex negatively regulates Wnt signaling in development and oncogenesis.

    ARID1A loss in adult hepatocytes activates β-catenin-mediated erythropoietin transcription

    Rozenn Riou, Meriem Ladli ... Sabine Colnot
    A chromatin remodeling factor cooperates with Wnt signaling pathway to transcribe erythropoietin in the adult liver, inducing its secretion and a dramatic erythropoiesis in the spleen.
