    PP2A/B55α substrate recruitment as defined by the retinoblastoma-related protein p107

    Holly Fowle, Ziran Zhao ... Xavier Graña
    Molecular, cellular, and computational analyses reveal key insights into PP2A/B55α's mechanisms of substrate recruitment and active site engagement, and facilitate identification/validation of new substrates, a step towards understanding PP2A/B55α's role in multiple cellular processes.

    Disease-related mutations in PI3Kγ disrupt regulatory C-terminal dynamics and reveal a path to selective inhibitors

    Manoj K Rathinaswamy, Zied Gaieb ... John E Burke
    The c-terminus of PI3K plays a key role in regulating kinase activity, with c-terminal disease-linked mutations leading to either activation or inhibition, which reveal a path to specific inhibitors.

    Allosteric activation or inhibition of PI3Kγ mediated through conformational changes in the p110γ helical domain

    Noah J Harris, Meredith L Jenkins ... John E Burke
    Regulation of phosphoinositide 3 kinase (PI3Kγ) is essential in immune function, and stimuli that modulate the dynamics of the PI3Kγ helical domain can activate or inhibit kinase activity.

    Conserved allosteric inhibition mechanism in SLC1 transporters

    Yang Dong, Jiali Wang ... Christof Grewer
    Functional and computational studies reveal that the allosteric inhibition mechanism is conserved between glutamate and neutral amino acid transporters of the SLC1 family, and identify a novel allosteric inhibitor.

    Panton–Valentine leucocidin is the key determinant of Staphylococcus aureus pyomyositis in a bacterial GWAS

    Bernadette C Young, Sarah G Earle ... Catrin E Moore
    Genome-wide association studies have established staphylococcal pyomyositis as a disease whose pathogenesis depends critically on expression of a single toxin, Panton–Valentine leukocidin.

    Genome-wide CRISPR screen identifies noncanonical NF-κB signaling as a regulator of density-dependent proliferation

    Maria Fomicheva, Ian G Macara
    TRAF3, a negative regulator of noncanonical NF-κB signaling, maintains epithelial cell quiescence at confluence, and its loss triggers upregulation of immunity genes and prevents entry into G0 at high cell density.

    Stimulus-selective crosstalk via the NF-κB signaling system reinforces innate immune response to alleviate gut infection

    Balaji Banoth, Budhaditya Chatterjee ... Soumen Basak
    The integration of signals via the pleiotropic NF-kappaB (NF-κB) system enables microenvironmental cues to tune cellular responses to pathogenic substances.
