    The non-mitotic role of HMMR in regulating the localization of TPX2 and the dynamics of microtubules in neurons

    Yi-Ju Chen, Shun-Cheng Tseng ... Eric Hwang
    The protein hyaluronan-mediated motility receptor interacts with microtubules to enhance their stability and recruits TPX2 to promote microtubule emanation in neurons.

    Identification of a third myosin-5a-melanophilin interaction that mediates the association of myosin-5a with melanosomes

    Jiabin Pan, Rui Zhou ... Xiang-dong Li
    In addition to the exon-F-binding domain and the globular tail domain-binding motif, the actin-binding domain of melanophilin interacts with myosin-5a tail region and mediates the association of myosin-5a with melanosomes.

    Metabolic regulation of misfolded protein import into mitochondria

    Yuhao Wang, Linhao Ruan ... Rong Li
    The conserved AMP-activated protein kinase inhibits mitochondrial import of misfolded proteins and helps preserve mitochondrial and cellular fitness under proteotoxic stress.

    Statin-mediated reduction in mitochondrial cholesterol primes an anti-inflammatory response in macrophages by upregulating Jmjd3

    Zeina Salloum, Kristin Dauner ... Xiaohui Zha
    Genetic and biochemical analysis reveals that the anti-inflammatory effect of statins is due to decreasing cholesterol in macrophages and upregulating Jmjd3 to achieve the anti-inflammatory action.
