The yeast VARP homolog forms a new sorting nexin complex that promotes its own membrane recruitment through GEF activity and regulates the distribution of endosomal proteins.
Genetic, proteomic, and structural analyses provide insight into the role of Brl1 during nuclear pore complex biogenesis, suggesting a function in the fusion of outer and inner nuclear membranes.
Intersectin counterparts in yeast recruit WASP and WIP to endocytic sites to establish a robust multivalent SH3 domain-PRM interaction network which gives actin assembly onset a switch-like behavior in vivo.
A binary cell fate decision to be or not to be stomata is regulated by multiple peptide ligands, each triggering a unique subcellular dynamics of their shared receptor.
The stomatal precursor cell uses autocrine peptide-receptor kinase signaling to self-inhibit its differentiation potential in order to ensure proper stomatal development on the plant epidermis.

A protein called PVRL4 has a central role in a number of cancers that originate in epithelial tissue, and anti-PVRL4 antibodies could be used to treat some of these cancers.

RNA decay is used at multiple points in the budding yeast unfolded protein response to regulate its suppression and activation, and possibly its attenuation.
