    TRIM28 promotes HIV-1 latency by SUMOylating CDK9 and inhibiting P-TEFb

    Xiancai Ma, Tao Yang ... Hui Zhang
    TRIM28 was found to be a versatile dual-function latency contributor by bridging both suppressive epigenetic modifications and RNAP II transcriptional-pausing, and can be a novel target to develop latency-reversing agents.

    Mutational resilience of antiviral restriction favors primate TRIM5α in host-virus evolutionary arms races

    Jeannette L Tenthorey, Candice Young ... Harmit S Malik
    Mutations in the TRIM5α retrovirus-binding interface frequently improve but rarely disrupt retroviral restriction.

    Cation selectivity of the presequence translocase channel Tim23 is crucial for efficient protein import

    Niels Denkert, Alexander Benjamin Schendzielorz ... Michael Meinecke
    Channel characteristics of the presequence translocation pore have a direct impact on protein import into the mitochondrial matrix.

    TREM2 regulates purinergic receptor-mediated calcium signaling and motility in human iPSC-derived microglia

    Amit Jairaman, Amanda McQuade ... Michael D Cahalan
    Deletion of Alzheimer’s disease risk gene TREM2 augments sensitivity to the purinergic agonist ADP, leading to increased Ca2+ influx and reduced directional migration in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived microglia.

    RTN3 inhibits RIG-I-mediated antiviral responses by impairing TRIM25-mediated K63-linked polyubiquitination

    Ziwei Yang, Jun Wang ... Ersheng Kuang
    RTN3 is upregulated upon RNA viral infection, in turn suppresses antiviral responses by impairing TRIM25-mediated RIG-I K63-linked polyubiquitination and decreases neutrophil populations and inflammatory infiltration, representing a novel inflammatory resolution.

    Rare missense variants in the human cytosolic antibody receptor preserve antiviral function

    Jingwei Zeng, Greg Slodkowicz, Leo C James
    Studying the impact of natural variation on a key immune gene highlights how focusing on a single wild-type sequence overlooks that rare variants cause the most disease.

    TRIM28 regulates the nuclear accumulation and toxicity of both alpha-synuclein and tau

    Maxime WC Rousseaux, Maria de Haro ... Huda Y Zoghbi
    Convergent screens targeting the levels of alpha-synuclein and tau identify TRIM28 as a driver of their stability, nuclear accumulation and subsequent toxicity.

    trim-21 promotes proteasomal degradation of CED-1 for apoptotic cell clearance in C. elegans

    Lei Yuan, Peiyao Li ... Hui Xiao
    The phagocytic receptor CED-1 is kept at the appropriate level by E3 ligase trim-21-mediated ubiquitination-proteasomal degradation for apoptotic cell clearance, which is independent of retromer-dependent recycling and lysosomal degradation.

    Diverging roles of TRPV1 and TRPM2 in warm-temperature detection

    Muad Y Abd El Hay, Gretel B Kamm ... Jan Siemens
    Different aspects of thermal stimuli, such as speed and intensity, are detected by distinct TRP channel-based mechanisms, with TRPV1 and TRPM2 playing unique roles in warmth perception and thermal decision-making.

    Repressing Ago2 mRNA translation by Trim71 maintains pluripotency through inhibiting let-7 microRNAs

    Qiuying Liu, Xiaoli Chen ... Wenqian Hu
    Repressing the conserved pro-differentiation let-7 microRNAs through limiting Ago2 levels is critical to maintaining pluripotency in stem cells.
