    Nuclear CK1δ as a critical determinant of PER:CRY complex dynamics and circadian period

    Fidel Emmanuel Serrano, Daniela Marzoll ... Michael Brunner
    Repressive PER2:CRY1:CK1δ complexes assembling in the cytosol enter the nucleus, where PER2 hyperphosphorylation eventually disrupts the complex, causing PER2 to relocalize to the cytoplasm, allowing nuclear accumulation of CRY1.

    Purified zymogens reveal mechanisms of snake venom metalloproteinase auto-activation

    Sophie Hall, Iara Aime Cardoso ... Christiane Schaffitzel
    A generic strategy for producing functional snake venom metalloproteinases opens the field to reproducible mechanistic studies and inhibitor discovery.

    Cell size modulates ferroptosis susceptibility

    Evgeny Zatulovskiy, Magdalena B Murray ... Jan M Skotheim
    Cellular sensitivity to cell death stimuli depends on cell-size-dependent proteome changes - specifically, cell size can modulate ferroptosis susceptibility through changes in glutathione biosynthetic enzymes, ferritin, and cathepsin B concentrations.

    Effects of residue substitutions on the cellular abundance of proteins

    Thea K Schulze, Kresten Lindorff-Larsen
    Empirical substitution matrices from experimental measurements on 31,614 variants accurately predict cellular protein abundance changes using only amino-acid substitution and whether the site is buried or exposed.
