    Structure of substrate-bound SMG1-8-9 kinase complex reveals molecular basis for phosphorylation specificity

    Lukas M Langer, Yair Gat ... Elena Conti
    First structural view of a substrate-bound PIKK (PI3K-related-kinase) by cryo-EM explains phosphorylation specificity toward a short amino-acid motif shared across the PIKK family and rationalizes PIKK auto-inhibition by regulatory domain.

    Cryo-EM reconstructions of inhibitor-bound SMG1 kinase reveal an autoinhibitory state dependent on SMG8

    Lukas M Langer, Fabien Bonneau ... Elena Conti
    Structures of human SMG1-9 and SMG1-8-9 reveal how the SMG1 kinase active site is targeted by a specific inhibitor and provide insights into the regulation of the SMG1-8-9 kinase complex in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay.

    SMC condensin entraps chromosomal DNA by an ATP hydrolysis dependent loading mechanism in Bacillus subtilis

    Larissa Wilhelm, Frank Bürmann ... Stephan Gruber
    The Smc–ScpAB complex-a prokaryotic ancestor of cohesin, condensin and Smc5/6-loads onto the bacterial chromosome by employing ATP hydrolysis to capture DNA fibers within its tripartite ring.

    Lack of Tgfbr1 and Acvr1b synergistically stimulates myofibre hypertrophy and accelerates muscle regeneration

    Michèle MG Hillege, Andi Shi ... Richard T Jaspers
    Muscle hypertrophy and regeneration are critically regulated by combination of TGF-β type I receptors in myofibres.

    DNA binding polarity, dimerization, and ATPase ring remodeling in the CMG helicase of the eukaryotic replisome

    Alessandro Costa, Ludovic Renault ... James M Berger
    The Mcm2-7 motor unwinds DNA using an approach distinct from that of superfamily III helicases, and accesses multiple ring configurations and assembly states during the initiation of DNA replication.

    Evidence for adolescent length growth spurts in bonobos and other primates highlights the importance of scaling laws

    Andreas Berghaenel, Jeroen MG Stevens ... Verena Behringer
    Scaling laws reveal the presence of adolescent growth spurts in bonobos and potentially in other non-human primates, challenging the notion of these spurts as a uniquely human trait and emphasizing the need to consider scaling laws when interpreting growth patterns.

    NLRP12 suppresses hepatocellular carcinoma via downregulation of cJun N-terminal kinase activation in the hepatocyte

    SM Nashir Udden, Youn-Tae Kwak ... Hasan Zaki
    NOD-like receptor NLRP12 is a critical regulator of hepatocyte proliferation and its activation could be therapeutically used to suppress hepatocellular carcinoma.

    Impact of liver-specific survival motor neuron (SMN) depletion on central nervous system and peripheral tissue pathology

    Monique Marylin Alves de Almeida, Yves De Repentigny ... Rashmi Kothary
    A liver-specific depletion of the survival motor neuron protein in a mouse model unveils a compelling and intricate connection between liver function and pancreatic abnormalities in spinal muscular atrophy.

    Intrinsic timescales as an organizational principle of neural processing across the whole rhesus macaque brain

    Ana MG Manea, Anna Zilverstand ... Jan Zimmermann
    Neuroimaging proves to be a powerful tool for capturing spatial and temporal dynamics across the whole nonhuman primate brain, bridging the gap between human and animal models.
