    Torsin ATPases influence chromatin interaction of the Torsin regulator LAP1

    Naemi Luithle, Jelmi uit de Bos ... Ulrike Kutay
    The INM protein LAP1B, an activator of Torsin ATPases, is a chromatin-binding factor that erroneously persists on mitotic chromatin if Torsin functionality is compromised, inducing chromosome segregation defects and binucleation.

    chTOG is a conserved mitotic error correction factor

    Jacob A Herman, Matthew P Miller, Sue Biggins
    The conserved chTOG protein is required to destabilize incorrect kinetochore-microtubule attachments.

    Remodeling of whole-body lipid metabolism and a diabetic-like phenotype caused by loss of CDK1 and hepatocyte division

    Jin Rong Ow, Matias J Caldez ... Philipp Kaldis
    Loss of hepatic Cdk1 leads to oxidative stress, increased fatty acids in blood, and hyperinsulinemia, which resulted in insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis, similar as in diabetes.

    Quantitative glycoproteomics reveals cellular substrate selectivity of the ER protein quality control sensors UGGT1 and UGGT2

    Benjamin M Adams, Nathan P Canniff ... Daniel N Hebert
    Natural substrates of the central endoplasmic reticulum quality control glycoprotein sensors UDP-glucose:glycoproteinglucosyltransferase (UGGT)1 and UGGT2 were identified using a glycoproteomics approach and the role for their modification was explored.

    An AMPK-dependent, non-canonical p53 pathway plays a key role in adipocyte metabolic reprogramming

    Hong Wang, Xueping Wan ... Libin Liu
    A non-canonical p53 function in adipocyte plays a critical role in energy homeostasis and is involved in obesity-associated metabolic dysfunctions.

    TFEB/Mitf links impaired nuclear import to autophagolysosomal dysfunction in C9-ALS

    Kathleen M Cunningham, Kirstin Maulding ... Thomas E Lloyd
    Impaired nuclear import of the transcription factor TFEB/MITF is a major cause of autophagy and lysosome dysfunction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis caused by mutations in the C9orf72 gene.
