ERK activation during induction of long-term synaptic plasticity is enhanced by synergistic interactions among signaling pathways mediated by the synaptically located GTPase-activating protein, and each pathway contributes to different ERK temporal dynamics.
The nutrient-sensing GCN2 signaling pathway is required for robust circadian rhythm by recruiting the histone acetyltransferase GCN5 to establish a proper chromatin state at the circadian clock gene promoter under amino acid starvation in Neurospora.
Mathematical and experimental analyses suggest that despite their complex architectures, multiple metazoan signaling pathways act in physiological contexts as linear signal transmitters.
Yeast cells can tune the modality of a nutrient response on physiological and evolutionary timescales by adapting the expression and sequence of a sensor protein.
The ligand-binding pocket of the Dishevelled PDZ domain can be occupied by Dishevelled's own highly conserved C-terminus, inducing a closed conformation that is ‘opened’ when Wnt signaling stimulates interaction between Frizzled and Dishevelled.

eIF3, despite being a general translation initiation factor, functions in mRNA-specific regulation, having a profound impact on the synthesis and activation of the MAPK pathway components and ribosomal proteins.
