    Glycolytic reliance promotes anabolism in photoreceptors

    Yashodhan Chinchore, Tedi Begaj ... Constance L Cepko
    Aerobic glycolysis in rod photoreceptors of adult mice is regulated by allostery and FGF signaling and is required for maintaining outer segments.

    Diverse stimuli engage different neutrophil extracellular trap pathways

    Elaine F Kenny, Alf Herzig ... Arturo Zychlinsky
    NETs induction, a central component of the innate immune response, utilises assorted signalling pathways as demonstrated through the analysis of healthy and patient neutrophils treated with five distinct stimuli.

    Exophilin-8 assembles secretory granules for exocytosis in the actin cortex via interaction with RIM-BP2 and myosin-VIIa

    Fushun Fan, Kohichi Matsunaga ... Tetsuro Izumi
    Analyses of knockout mice and a biochemical screen of interacting proteins reveal that exophilin-8 forms a large network of protein interactions to efficiently retain secretory granules beneath the plasma membrane for exocytosis.

    Spatiotemporal regulation of autophagy during Caenorhabditis elegans aging

    Jessica T Chang, Caroline Kumsta ... Malene Hansen
    Autophagic flux assays in the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans suggest that autophagy decreases during normal aging, whereas long-lived daf-2 and glp-1 mutants maintain autophagic capacity in distinct spatiotemporal-specific manners to extend lifespan.

    Synchronized HIV assembly by tunable PIP2 changes reveals PIP2 requirement for stable Gag anchoring

    Frauke Mücksch, Vibor Laketa ... Hans-Georg Kräusslich
    PI(4,5)P2 plays a much broader role during the HIV-1 particle assembly process than assumed; it is indispensable not only for recruitment of Gag to the plasma membrane but also for the maintenance of Gag assemblies.

    MPI depletion enhances O-GlcNAcylation of p53 and suppresses the Warburg effect

    Nataly Shtraizent, Charles DeRossi ... Jaime Chu
    Mannose phosphate isomerase is a metabolic enzyme regulating cell survival in both embryonic and cancer cells.

    HIF-1α is required for disturbed flow-induced metabolic reprogramming in human and porcine vascular endothelium

    David Wu, Ru-Ting Huang ... Gökhan M Mutlu
    Hemodynamic forces regulate endothelial cell metabolism, which in turn regulates endothelial inflammation.

    Affimer proteins are versatile and renewable affinity reagents

    Christian Tiede, Robert Bedford ... Darren Charles Tomlinson
    The Affimer technology represents renewable binding reagents for molecular biology, which provides research scientists and industry with an alternative to the recently criticised use of animal-produced antibodies.
