    Natural variation reveals that intracellular distribution of ELF3 protein is associated with function in the circadian clock

    Muhammad Usman Anwer, Eleni Boikoglou ... Seth Jon Davis
    In Arabidopsis, a natural variant of the ELF3 protein, which originated in Central Asia, is less likely to accumulate in the nucleus, and causes the circadian clock to run faster and be less responsive to environmental cues.

    Transport of soluble proteins through the Golgi occurs by diffusion via continuities across cisternae

    Galina V Beznoussenko, Seetharaman Parashuraman ... Alberto Luini
    The soluble cargo protein albumin traverses the Golgi stack at much faster rates than procollagen aggregates, by diffusion via intercisternal continuities.

    Imaging the fate of histone Cse4 reveals de novo replacement in S phase and subsequent stable residence at centromeres

    Jan Wisniewski, Bassam Hajj ... Carl Wu
    Internally tagged, functional Cse4/CENP-A/CenH3 histone variant is exclusively centromeric and stable through the budding yeast cell cycle after replacement in S phase.
