The structural and functional analysis demonstrates the mechanism of dual functional, motility and microtubule depolymerization in a unique motor, KIF19A.

An RNA-regulatory machine confers expression and function of a receptor tyrosine kinase to dictate a developmental signaling transition.

Cleavage of Syk, a central kinase in B-cell signalling, by DPP9 leads to Syk degradation, identifying novel roles for DPP9 in Syk signaling and in the N-end rule pathway.

Seipin oligomers dynamically interact with small, nascent lipid droplets near the endoplasmic reticulum to convert them into larger, mature lipid droplets in a newly identified step of lipid droplet formation.

Blocking acidification causes endosomes to fuse with the plasma membrane, releasing exosomes that remain attached to the cell surface via the anti-viral protein tetherin.

Mechanistic insights show how treatment with apoA1 is anti-inflammatory by rapidly disrupting macrophage chemotaxis and monocyte recruitment.

Different cytoneme types require specific heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) that are stratified within the extracellular matrix in Drosophila.

A Drosophila tumor model reveals how the activation of an oncogenic pathway can lead to both tumor growth and a reprogramming of metabolism known as the Warberg effect.

Tom1 is the ubiquitin ligase in yeast that anchors a protein quality control pathway that rapidly eliminates ribosomal proteins that fail to assemble into ribosomes.

NOVA pre-mRNA spacing factors suppress adipose tissue energy expenditure.
