    The inner junction complex of the cilia is an interaction hub that involves tubulin post-translational modifications

    Ahmad Abdelzaher Zaki Khalifa, Muneyoshi Ichikawa ... Khanh Huy Bui
    A structure of the ciliary inner junction at 3.6 Å resolution permits atomic modeling of six inner junction proteins and their interactions with acetylated lysine 40 loops of alpha tubulins.

    A sequential multi-target Mps1 phosphorylation cascade promotes spindle checkpoint signaling

    Zhejian Ji, Haishan Gao ... Hongtao Yu
    The spindle checkpoint kinase Mps1 sequentially phosphorylates multiple substrates to amplify checkpoint signals, making the checkpoint highly dependent on Mps1 function and directly responsive to kinetochore-microtubule attachment.

    Akkermansia muciniphila identified as key strain to alleviate gut barrier injury through Wnt signaling pathway

    Xin Ma, Meng Li ... Xinyan Han
    FMT alleviated the intestinal barrier damage caused by enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli infection in antibiotic-induced microbiome-disordered model through increasing the relative abundance of A. muciniphila in the intestine.

    Morphogenetic forces planar polarize LGN/Pins in the embryonic head during Drosophila gastrulation

    Jaclyn Camuglia, Soline Chanet, Adam C Martin
    Morphogenetic forces from tissue invagination orient cell division through a previously undescribed mechanism of force-dependent LGN/Pins polarization.

    CRIg, a tissue-resident macrophage specific immune checkpoint molecule, promotes immunological tolerance in NOD mice, via a dual role in effector and regulatory T cells

    Xiaomei Yuan, Bi-Huei Yang ... Wenxian Fu
    Tissue-resident macrophages sense environmental cues and regulate adaptive immunity via an immune checkpoint molecule CRIg.

    Robust and accurate prediction of residue–residue interactions across protein interfaces using evolutionary information

    Sergey Ovchinnikov, Hetunandan Kamisetty, David Baker
    Co-evolving residue pairs in the different components of a protein complex almost always make contact across the protein–protein interface, thus providing powerful restraints for the modeling of protein complexes.

    Genetic diversity of CHC22 clathrin impacts its function in glucose metabolism

    Matteo Fumagalli, Stephane M Camus ... Frances M Brodsky
    Natural selection shaped CHC22 clathrin genetic variation in humans with different diets and potentially influenced the human insulin response.

    Bardet–Biedl syndrome 3 protein promotes ciliary exit of the signaling protein phospholipase D via the BBSome

    Yan-Xia Liu, Bin Xue ... Zhen-Chuan Fan
    Bardet–Biedl syndrome 3 (BBS3) protein promotes phospholipase D to load onto the BBSome at the ciliary tip for moving out of the cilium via intraflagellar transport.

    Prospective identification of functionally distinct stem cells and neurosphere-initiating cells in adult mouse forebrain

    John K Mich, Robert AJ Signer ... Sean J Morrison
    Flow cytometric isolation and fate mapping shows that neurosphere-initiating cells are highly mitotically active and persist only transiently in vivo, and are distinct from quiescent, long-lived neural stem cells.
