    Toxoplasma gondii peptide ligands open the gate of the HLA class I binding groove

    Curtis McMurtrey, Thomas Trolle ... William Hildebrand
    T. gondii infection alters how peptide ligands are presented to the immune system by inducing a previously unreported structural change in Human Leukocyte Antigens (HLAs).

    Boundary Dpp promotes growth of medial and lateral regions of the Drosophila wing

    Lara Barrio, Marco Milán
    Dpp emanating from the anterior-posterior compartment boundary is continuously required to promote proliferative growth of the whole fly wing appendage.

    AR phosphorylation and CHK2 kinase activity regulates IR-stabilized AR–CHK2 interaction and prostate cancer survival

    Huy Q Ta, Natalia Dworak ... Daniel Gioeli
    CHK2 directly binds the AR to mediate transient suppression of AR activity and thus loss of CHK2 function in prostate cancer increases AR activity, DNA damage response and radiation resistance.

    Distinct modes of SMAD2 chromatin binding and remodeling shape the transcriptional response to NODAL/Activin signaling

    Davide M Coda, Tessa Gaarenstroom ... Caroline S Hill
    NODAL/Activin-induced SMAD2 binding directly drives remodeling of both open and closed chromatin and does not directly correlate with temporal patterns of gene expression upon prolonged signaling.

    UGGT1-mediated reglucosylation of N-glycan competes with ER-associated degradation of unstable and misfolded glycoproteins

    Satoshi Ninagawa, Masaki Matsuo ... Kazutoshi Mori
    The fate of glycoproteins in the endoplasmic reticulum whether they are directed toward folding or targeted to degradation depends on a tug of war between UGGT1 and EDEM family proteins.

    Quantifying absolute gene expression profiles reveals distinct regulation of central carbon metabolism genes in yeast

    Rosemary Yu, Egor Vorontsov ... Jens Nielsen
    Global gene expression control mechanisms are modeled using a large dataset consisting of absolute-quantitative proteomics, transcriptomics, and partial metabolomics of Saccharomyces cerevisiae at a wide range of growth conditions.

    A druggable secretory protein maturase of Toxoplasma essential for invasion and egress

    Sunil Kumar Dogga, Budhaditya Mukherjee ... Dominique Soldati-Favre
    An aspartyl protease is essential for the lytic cycle of Toxoplasma gondii and is involved in the maturation of proteins critical for invasion and egress, and it can be targeted selectively with an ethylamine scaffold based peptidomimetic inhibitor.
  1. Point of View: Science, art, society and Klimt’s University of Vienna paintings

    Alberto E Pereda
    A set of paintings by Gustav Klimt highlights ongoing tensions in the relationships between art, science and society.

    Reproducibility Project: Cancer Biology: Time to do something about reproducibility

    Sean J Morrison
    Individual scientists, scientific communities and scientific journals can do more to assess the publication of irreproducible results, to promote good science, and to increase the efficiency with which the scientific community self-corrects.
