The dimer destabilizers cause a dimer-to-monomer equilibrium shift favoring the human thymidylate synthase monomer more degradable by the proteasome, thus breaking the long-standing link between inhibition and enhanced expression of the protein to fight cancer drug resistance.
Prokaryotic TRADD-N and Death-like adaptor domains in diverse predicted apoptosis and immune systems from multicellular prokaryotes and metazoans indicate the common origin of key apoptosis mechanisms required for the stabilization of multicellularity.

ESRP1 is central to intestinal barrier integrity in mice and humans and alterations in ESRP1 function or expression contribute to intestinal pathology, partly through modified expression of ESRP1-specific GPR137 isoforms.
LISP2 expression marks the beginning of awakening of dormant hypnozoite to developing malaria liver stages, which are susceptible to a novel prophylactic drug, Plasmodium PI4K inhibitor.

The Wnt antagonist DKK3 is a key regulator of excitatory and inhibitory synapses, and its downregulation in the hippocampus restores synaptic connectivity and memory in an Alzheimer's disease mouse model.
The interplay between the Flower Ca2+ channel and PI(4,5)P2 spatiotemporally couples synaptic vesicle exocytosis to activity-dependent bulk endocytosis and synaptic vesicle reformation from bulk endosomes.
