    Bub3 reads phosphorylated MELT repeats to promote spindle assembly checkpoint signaling

    Ivana Primorac, John R Weir ... Andrea Musacchio
    The spindle assembly protein Bub3 recruits the checkpoint kinase Bub1 to kinetochores by binding to phosphorylated MELT repeats in the kinetochore subunit Knl1.

    Structural basis of GSK-3 inhibition by N-terminal phosphorylation and by the Wnt receptor LRP6

    Jennifer L Stamos, Matthew Ling-Hon Chu ... William I Weis
    Phosphorylation of the Wnt receptor LRP6 directly inhibits glycogen synthase kinase-3 by acting as a pseudosubstrate that stabilizes an active conformation of the enzyme, identical to autoinhibition by phosphorylation of its N terminus.

    The membrane-associated proteins FCHo and SGIP are allosteric activators of the AP2 clathrin adaptor complex

    Gunther Hollopeter, Jeffrey J Lange ... Erik M Jorgensen
    Endocytosis is triggered by membrane-associated proteins that transform the clathrin adaptor into an active complex.

    The stress-responsive kinases MAPKAPK2/MAPKAPK3 activate starvation-induced autophagy through Beclin 1 phosphorylation

    Yongjie Wei, Zhenyi An ... Beth Levine
    Nutrient starvation activates autophagy by a novel signaling mechanism that is blocked by one of the major autophagy inhibitors.

    Role of competition between polarity sites in establishing a unique front

    Chi-Fang Wu, Jian-Geng Chiou ... Daniel J Lew
    In budding yeast, nascent polarity sites engage in a winner-takes-all contest to determine a single front.

    Phosphorylation acts positively and negatively to regulate MRTF-A subcellular localisation and activity

    Richard Panayiotou, Francesc Miralles ... Richard Treisman
    G-actin binding controls the susceptibility of MRTF-A to phosphorylation, which works in concert with multiple NES elements to regulate MRTF-A subcellular localisation and activity.

    CPEB4 is regulated during cell cycle by ERK2/Cdk1-mediated phosphorylation and its assembly into liquid-like droplets

    Jordina Guillén-Boixet, Víctor Buzon ... Raúl Méndez
    CPEB4's switch from translational repressor to activator is regulated during cell cycle by hyperphosphorylation of its intrinsically disordered domain, which controls its phase-separation into RNA-containing liquid-like droplets.

    Molecular basis of outer kinetochore assembly on CENP-T

    Pim J Huis in 't Veld, Sadasivam Jeganathan ... Andrea Musacchio
    The centromeric protein CENP-T assembles the microtubule-binding interface of kinetochores through direct recruitment of two Ndc80 complexes and indirect recruitment of a third one through the Mis12 complex.

    Shank is a dose-dependent regulator of Cav1 calcium current and CREB target expression

    Edward Pym, Nikhil Sasidharan ... Joshua M Kaplan
    Changes in Shank gene dosage alter voltage-activated calcium current and calcium-activated gene expression in a manner that parallels the effects of human Shank copy number variation on psychiatric disease risk.

    Homeostatic control of START through negative feedback between Cln3-Cdk1 and Rim15/Greatwall kinase in budding yeast

    Nicolas Talarek, Elisabeth Gueydon, Etienne Schwob
    Inhibition of phosphatases by kinases develops Whi5 phosphorylation and cell cycle function in low cyclin-dependent kinase activity.
