A generalizable approach to identify sequence features driving degradation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) provides useful tools for enabling ER-localized protein degradation.
The local PI(4,5)P2 nanodomain promotes the dimerization and activation of EGFR in the plasma membrane, whereas activated EGFR dissolves the nanodomain structure of PI(4,5)P2 through PLCγ.
Formation of a giant unilocular vacuole through a macropinocytosis-like process in cells with disrupted actin cytoskeleton promotes resistance to anoikis.
A plant autophagy pathway transports chloroplast stroma and envelope components into the vacuole through the division and encapsulation of the site of chloroplasts that is associated with developing autophagosome.
Two alternative models of PKA activation were tested in neurons, and the results support the classical model in which the catalytic subunit dissociated from the regulatory subunit upon activation.
