    Regulation of cell protrusions by small GTPases during fusion of the neural folds

    Ana Rolo, Dawn Savery ... Andrew J Copp
    The completion of neural tube closure requires small GTPase-regulated membrane protrusions from non-neural ectoderm cells at the tips of the neural folds.

    Arabidopsis heterotrimeric G proteins regulate immunity by directly coupling to the FLS2 receptor

    Xiangxiu Liang, Pingtao Ding ... Jian-Min Zhou
    Heterotrimeric G proteins are coupled to and regulate plant receptor signaling, which allows optimum immune activation and enhances the production of reactive oxygen species.

    Community effects in regulation of translation

    Paul M Macdonald, Matt Kanke, Andrew Kenny
    Regulatory elements in an mRNA that act in cis to influence translation can also exert their effects in trans, in a process dependent on assembly of the mRNAs into particles.

    The E3 ubiquitin ligase ZNRF2 is a substrate of mTORC1 and regulates its activation by amino acids

    Gerta Hoxhaj, Edward Caddye ... Carol MacKintosh
    The ZNRF2 enzyme helps the mTOR protein complex to sense amino acid levels and regulate mammalian cell growth.

    A new class of cyclin dependent kinase in Chlamydomonas is required for coupling cell size to cell division

    Yubing Li, Dianyi Liu ... James G Umen
    CDKG1 is a D-cyclin dependent retinoblastoma related protein kinase whose abundance scales with cell size and controls cell division cycle number during multiple fission.

    A SPOPL/Cullin-3 ubiquitin ligase complex regulates endocytic trafficking by targeting EPS15 at endosomes

    Michaela Gschweitl, Anna Ulbricht ... Matthias Peter
    The poorly characterized BTB-protein SPOPL is required to maintain the function of the late endosomal system and the endocytic adaptor EPS15 is therein targeted by the SPOPL/Cullin-3 ubiquitin ligase complex for degradation.

    Synthetic protein interactions reveal a functional map of the cell

    Lisa K Berry, Guðjón Ólafsson ... Peter H Thorpe
    Forcing protein associations across the proteome reveals the cell's tolerance for diverse protein interactions and reveals the interactions that affect growth.

    The cell proliferation antigen Ki-67 organises heterochromatin

    Michal Sobecki, Karim Mrouj ... Daniel Fisher
    Antigen Ki-67, which is widely used as a cell proliferation marker, controls heterochromatin organisation and gene expression.

    Tumor microenvironment derived exosomes pleiotropically modulate cancer cell metabolism

    Hongyun Zhao, Lifeng Yang ... Deepak Nagrath
    Exosomes from cancer-associated fibroblasts enhance the "Warburg effect" in tumors and contain de novo metabolites that can contribute to the entire compendia of central carbon metabolism within cancer cells.
