    EGF-dependent re-routing of vesicular recycling switches spontaneous phosphorylation suppression to EGFR signaling

    Martin Baumdick, Yannick Brüggemann ... Philippe IH Bastiaens
    Plasticity arising from autocatalytic receptor activation coexists with robustness in ligand responsiveness only by differential endosomal sorting of spontaneous and ligand-activated EGFR as distinct molecular states.

    Chromatin-prebound Crm1 recruits Nup98-HoxA9 fusion to induce aberrant expression of Hox cluster genes

    Masahiro Oka, Sonoko Mura ... Yoshihiro Yoneda
    Nup98-HoxA9 is recruited to Hox gene cluster regions together with the chromosomally pre-bound nuclear export factor Crm1, which induces aberrant expression of several Hox genes and affecting the differentiation of embryonic stem cells.

    The ATPases of cohesin interface with regulators to modulate cohesin-mediated DNA tethering

    Gamze Çamdere, Vincent Guacci ... Douglas Koshland
    A critical second step in DNA tethering by cohesin occurs after its stable binding to DNA, and this second step is modulated by the Smc3 ATPase active site in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

    TANGO1 recruits ERGIC membranes to the endoplasmic reticulum for procollagen export

    António JM Santos, Ishier Raote ... Vivek Malhotra
    Building on previous work (Nogueira et al., 2014), we describe a mechanism for the generation of a mega-carrier for the export of bulky procollagen from the endoplasmic reticulum.

    De novo centriole formation in human cells is error-prone and does not require SAS-6 self-assembly

    Won-Jing Wang, Devrim Acehan ... Meng-Fu Bryan Tsou
    Canonical centriole duplication is much less prone to errors than de novo synthesis of centrioles, but neither depends on self-oligomerization of the centriole protein SAS-6.

    Attenuation of AMPK signaling by ROQUIN promotes T follicular helper cell formation

    Roybel R Ramiscal, Ian A Parish ... Vicki Athanasopoulos
    The ubiquitin ligase ROQUIN cross-talks with cellular metabolic signals to generate protective T cell-dependent antibody responses.

    Stable G protein-effector complexes in striatal neurons: mechanism of assembly and role in neurotransmitter signaling

    Keqiang Xie, Ikuo Masuho ... Kirill A Martemyanov
    A G protein in striatal neurons forms preassembled complexes with its downstream enzyme, adenylyl cyclase, which has implications for the pathophysiology of movement disorders.

    Near-infrared photoactivatable control of Ca2+ signaling and optogenetic immunomodulation

    Lian He, Yuanwei Zhang ... Yubin Zhou
    A near-infrared light-stimulable optogenetic platform enables remote and wireless manipulation of calcium signaling and immune responses both in vitro and in vivo to achieve tailored function.

    The Rho-guanine nucleotide exchange factor PDZ-RhoGEF governs susceptibility to diet-induced obesity and type 2 diabetes

    Ying-Ju Chang, Scott Pownall ... Vuk Stambolic
    PDZ-RhoGEF controls adipose tissue abundance and whole body metabolism.
