The neutral amino acid transporter SLC38A2 is an essential protective factor for renal medulla during urine concentration.

The cooperative action of PAF15 deubiquitylation by USP7 and its dissociation from chromatin by ATAD5 regulates proper PAF15Ub2 signaling termination, which is important for replication and maintenance of DNA methylation.

Novel frequency-based analysis and computation modeling of cilia carpets reveals that tissue-scale metachronal coordination of cilia can arise even in the absence of global synchronization.

Pericytes in the adult ear are critical for vascular stability and spiral ganglion neuron health.

Proximity proteomics combined with mouse genetics are used to assess the composition of active zone-like sites for dopamine release and reveal that the scaffolding protein RIM organizes these sites.

The p.Arg707Trp mutation in Mfn2 causes adipose-specific activation of the integrated stress response, which lowers secretion of adipokines.

Human metabolism-focused screens reveal clinically promising interventional strategies and repurposing targets to treat COVID-19.

Discovery of new Snf1/AMPK targets in the TORC1 pathway highlights the complex, multilayered crosstalk between major signaling pathways in the regulation of nutrient deprivation sensing.

A chemical regularly used to image cells can dramatically alter the way cellular compartments called condensates look under the microscope.

A decline in iron-recycling functions of the splenic red pulp macrophages early during aging is driven by iron loading and involves their damage and a loss in red blood cell clearance capacity.
