    Genome-wide interrogation of extracellular vesicle biology using barcoded miRNAs

    Albert Lu, Paulina Wawro ... Suzanne R Pfeffer
    A screen using artificially barcoded, exosomal microRNAs, paired with CRISPR guide RNAs, helped identify new players in multivesicular endosome exocytosis and a role for Wnt signaling.

    The LRRK2 G2019S mutation alters astrocyte-to-neuron communication via extracellular vesicles and induces neuron atrophy in a human iPSC-derived model of Parkinson’s disease

    Aurelie de Rus Jacquet, Jenna L Tancredi ... Erin K O'Shea
    Extracellular vesicles are proposed as novel, non-cell-autonomous mediators of neuronal atrophy in Parkinson's disease.

    The Slingshot phosphatase 2 is required for acrosome biogenesis during spermatogenesis in mice

    Ke Xu, Xianwei Su ... Hongbin Liu

    Distinct mechanisms of microRNA sorting into cancer cell-derived extracellular vesicle subtypes

    Morayma M Temoche-Diaz, Matthew J Shurtleff ... Randy Schekman
    Biochemical fractionation of vesicle sub-populations and in vitro reconstitution studies reveal that Lupus La protein mediates the selective sorting of miR-122 into extracellular vesicles in vitro and in vivo.

    Differential modification of the C-terminal tails of different α-tubulins and their importance for microtubule function in vivo

    Mengjing Bao, Ruth E Dörig ... Beat Suter
    Specific glutamylation of some α-tubulin isotypes affects kinesin-1 localization and transport processes that depend on it, but their absence can speed up transport, possibly explaining why some large cells express α-tubulin isotypes that are not glutamylated.

    Phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and COPII generate LC3 lipidation vesicles from the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment

    Liang Ge, Min Zhang, Randy Schekman
    Building on previous work (Ge et al., 2013), it is shown that the ER-Golgi intermediate compartment is a platform for the production of COPII vesicles as precursor membranes for the lipidation of LC3, which is an essential step in autophagosome biogenesis.

    Sec24 phosphorylation regulates autophagosome abundance during nutrient deprivation

    Saralin Davis, Juan Wang ... Susan Ferro-Novick
    Phosphorylation of a core trafficking component, the COPII coat subunit Sec24, regulates cross-talk between the secretory and autophagy machinery during starvation.

    TANGO1 recruits ERGIC membranes to the endoplasmic reticulum for procollagen export

    António JM Santos, Ishier Raote ... Vivek Malhotra
    Building on previous work (Nogueira et al., 2014), we describe a mechanism for the generation of a mega-carrier for the export of bulky procollagen from the endoplasmic reticulum.

    Ciliary Rab28 and the BBSome negatively regulate extracellular vesicle shedding

    Jyothi S Akella, Stephen P Carter ... Oliver E Blacque
    The RAB-28 GTPase regulates ciliary extracellular vesicle shedding, which may be important for neuron-glia communication.
