    Condensation of Ede1 promotes the initiation of endocytosis

    Mateusz Kozak, Marko Kaksonen
    Protein phase separation provides an explanation for the compositional flexibility of endocytic initiation and the role of multivalent disordered scaffolds in endocytosis.

    Capping protein regulates endosomal trafficking by controlling F-actin density around endocytic vesicles and recruiting RAB5 effectors

    Dawei Wang, Zuodong Ye ... Jianbo Yue
    CapZ controls actin filament density around immature early endosomes via its C-terminal domain to facilitate the homotypic fusion of the endocytic vesicles, and it functions as a scaffold protein via its N-terminal domain to recruit RAB5 effectors to early endosomes.

    Solute exchange through gap junctions lessens the adverse effects of inactivating mutations in metabolite-handling genes

    Stefania Monterisi, Johanna Michl ... Pawel Swietach
    Imaging studies of connexin-coupled networks of colorectal cancer cells reveal that cells carrying a genetic defect in an essential metabolic pathway can be rescued by diffusive exchange with neighboring wild-type cells via gap junctions, particularly Cx26, thereby evading negative selection.

    On the objectivity, reliability, and validity of deep learning enabled bioimage analyses

    Dennis Segebarth, Matthias Griebel ... Robert Blum
    A comparison of different bioimage analysis pipelines reveals how deep learning can be used for automatized and reliable analysis of fluorescent features in biological datasets.

    The Glide/Gcm fate determinant controls initiation of collective cell migration by regulating Frazzled

    Tripti Gupta, Arun Kumar ... Angela Giangrande
    The role of the Frazzled chemoattractant receptor is to triggers migration initiation as part of the glial developmental program induced by the Glide/Gcm transcription factor.

    Self-assembly of pericentriolar material in interphase cells lacking centrioles

    Fangrui Chen, Jingchao Wu ... Anna Akhmanova
    In the absence of centrioles, components of pericentriolar material can self-organize into a single compact microtubule-organizing center through dynein-mediated transport of pericentrin-containing protein complexes if CAMSAP- and Golgi-mediated pathways of microtubule minus-end stabilization and anchoring are disabled.

    Learning protein constitutive motifs from sequence data

    Jérôme Tubiana, Simona Cocco, Rémi Monasson
    A new machine-learning toolbox unveils coevolutionary protein motifs related to structure, function, and phylogeny from sequence information only.

    Erythropoietin signaling regulates heme biosynthesis

    Jacky Chung, Johannes G Wittig ... Barry H Paw
    EPO/JAK2/PKA signaling cascade via AKAP10 relocalization to the outer mitochondrial membrane results in the phosphorylation of the terminal heme synthesis enzyme ferrochelatase, which contributes to heme production in red cells.

    A unified view of low complexity regions (LCRs) across species

    Byron Lee, Nima Jaberi-Lashkari, Eliezer Calo
    Disparate functions of low complexity regions of proteins can be understood through a global view of their sequences, features, and relationships across different organisms and biological contexts.

    Identification of human TERT elements necessary for telomerase recruitment to telomeres

    Jens C Schmidt, Andrew B Dalby, Thomas R Cech
    The TEN-domain of human telomerase mediates the direct interaction with TPP1 to drive telomerase recruitment to telomeres.
