TMEM127 depletion alters membrane dynamics, promoting cell surface accumulation and constitutive activity of growth factor receptors, and ultimately providing a novel paradigm for oncogenesis through aberrant receptor localization and signaling.

N-cadherin and Slit2/3/Robo interactions provide the outward force to drive collective Schwann cell migration during nerve regeneration, identifying a dual role for N-cadherin in both adhesion and repulsion processes during Schwann cell collective migration.

KIS, a kinase upregulated in the developmental brain, phosphorylates the PTBP2 splicing complex and modulates alternative exon usage for proper synaptic spine emergence and maturation.
The distinct transcriptomic features of extraocular muscle satellite cells, partially mimicked by NaBu treatment, endow enhanced self-renewal and axon attraction, contribute to neuromuscular junction preservation during ALS progression.

A novel mechanism underlying the regulation of osteoblast morphology, adherence, and migration that has implications in bone remodeling, regeneration, and response to the pharmacological effects of PTH treatment.
Structural promiscuity in PURA protein, induced by patient mutations, impacts nucleic acid binding, unwinding, and subcellular localization, indicating why so many patients display the full disease spectrum of PURA syndrome.
