    Endosomal chemokine receptor signalosomes regulate central mechanisms underlying cell migration

    Hyunggu Hahn, Carole Daly ... Alex RB Thomsen
    Cell biological approaches and spatiotemporally resolved proteome profiling demonstrate that the chemokine receptor CCR7 can activate G proteins after being internalized into endosomes, from where it regulates Rac1-dependent chemotaxis.

    Mechanisms of PP2A-Ankle2 dependent nuclear reassembly after mitosis

    Jingjing Li, Xinyue Wang ... Vincent Archambault
    Ankle2 functions as a regulatory subunit of PP2A and interacts with the endoplasmic reticulum protein Vap33 to promote the dephosphorylation of BAF as part of nuclear reassembly after mitosis.
