Pkc53E kinase-mediated downregulation of CSL/Su(H) activity is a direct molecular response to parasitoid wasp infestation in Drosophila, allowing the differentiation of encapsulation-active lamellocytes, thereby ensuring an appropriate immune defense.

Single-cell tracking and cell-fate simulation suggest that low levels of p53 suppress aneuploid cell formation in unstressed cells and also reveal the dual fate of cells lacking p53 in the presence of p53-proficient cells.

Myristoylation of a secreted protein, identified in a global myristoylation analysis of the eukaryotic parasite Toxoplasma gondii, is important for host cell invasion.

Transcription factors form clusters independently of the presence of DNA, which regulate target genes as opposed to individual monomers, addressing a longstanding question of how transcription factors can find gene targets so quickly.
