    Regulation of pDC fate determination by histone deacetylase 3

    Yijun Zhang, Tao Wu ... Li Wu
    HDAC3 regulates the development of pDCs and maintenance of homeostasis of hematopoietic progenitors with dendritic cell (DC) differentiation potential, mechanistically by repressing cDC1 associated genes in a deacetylase-dependent manner.

    Zn2+ is essential for Ca2+ oscillations in mouse eggs

    Hiroki Akizawa, Emily M Lopes, Rafael A Fissore
    Throughout oocyte maturation, there is a simultaneous elevation in the concentrations of Ca2+ and Zn2+, and the fertilization-induced Ca2+ oscillations cease under Zn2+-deficient conditions, implying an interplay between these ions, potentially at the IP3R1 level that harbors a Zn2+-binding domain.

    Ulk4 promotes Shh signaling by regulating Stk36 ciliary localization and Gli2 phosphorylation

    Mengmeng Zhou, Yuhong Han, Jin Jiang
    Phosphorylation of the pseudokinase Ulk4 by Stk36 promotes primary ciliary tip localization of both proteins to facilitate the phosphorylation and activation of Gli in response to Sonic hedgehog.

    N-WASP-dependent branched actin polymerization attenuates B-cell receptor signaling by increasing the molecular density of receptor clusters

    Anshuman Bhanja, Margaret K Seeley-Fallen ... Wenxia Song
    B-cells generate inner actomyosin foci from lamellipodial actin networks to drive cell contraction on antigen-presenting surfaces, which causes signaling molecule disassociation from B-cell receptor clusters and signal attenuation.

    Mitochondrial temperature homeostasis resists external metabolic stresses

    Mügen Terzioglu, Kristo Veeroja ... Howard T Jacobs
    Based on two independent methods, mitochondria operate at temperatures up to 15°C hotter than ambient, adjusting their heat production so as to maintain temperature in face of physiological stresses.

    Rab12 is a regulator of LRRK2 and its activation by damaged lysosomes

    Xiang Wang, Vitaliy V Bondar ... Anastasia G Henry
    Rab12 was identified as a key modulator of LRRK2-dependent Rab phosphorylation that mediates the recruitment of LRRK2 to lysosomes in response to damage.
