    The Arabidopsis SAC9 enzyme is enriched in a cortical population of early endosomes and restricts PI(4,5)P2 at the plasma membrane

    Alexis Lebecq, Mehdi Doumane ... Marie-Cécile Caillaud
    SAC9 prevents the accumulation of PI(4,5)P2 in intracellular compartments, thereby contributing to clathrin-mediated endocytosis at the plasma membrane and regulating the cortical localization of its protein partner SH3P2.

    Genetically controlled mtDNA deletions prevent ROS damage by arresting oxidative phosphorylation

    Simon Stenberg, Jing Li ... Jonas Warringer
    Yeast cells adapt to harmful superoxide generated during mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation by arresting respiration through mtDNA deletions whose emergence depend on superoxide dismutase 2 and the retrograde pathway.

    Circadian oscillations in Trichoderma atroviride and the role of core clock components in secondary metabolism, development, and mycoparasitism against the phytopathogen Botrytis cinerea

    Marlene Henríquez-Urrutia, Rebecca Spanner ... Luis F Larrondo
    The biocontrol fungus Trichoderma atroviride possess a functional circadian clock, whose components impact the production of secondary metabolites and also play a role in the interaction with fungi such as the phytopathogen Botrytis cinerea.

    Non-canonical function of an Hif-1α splice variant contributes to the sustained flight of locusts

    Ding Ding, Jie Zhang ... Le Kang
    The long-distance flight of locusts is greatly facilitated by a muscle-abundantly expressed Hif-1α splice variant, which remains active in normoxia and scavenges flight-induced reactive oxygen species by upregulating the expression of DJ-1 (PARK 7).

    Alternative Splicing: A new role for Hif-1α

    Mingyu Shin, Jiwon Shim
    A gene normally involved in responding to hypoxia helps to protect insect muscles during migratory flight in a non-oxygen dependent manner.

    Nuclear fascin regulates cancer cell survival

    Campbell D Lawson, Samantha Peel ... Maddy Parsons
    Nuclear fascin accumulation occurs upon inhibition of Histone H3 kinases and results in enhanced and sustained nuclear F-actin bundling leading to reduced cancer cell invasion, viability, and nuclear fascin-specific/driven apoptosis.

    Prolonged β-adrenergic stimulation disperses ryanodine receptor clusters in cardiomyocytes and has implications for heart failure

    Xin Shen, Jonas van den Brink ... William E Louch
    Prolonged β-adrenergic stimulation causes ryanodine receptor clusters to disperse, drastically altering the frequency and kinetics of Ca2+ release events called ‘Ca2+ sparks’ in a process that is dependent on CaMKII and PKA.

    An amphipathic helix in Brl1 is required for nuclear pore complex biogenesis in S. cerevisiae

    Annemarie Kralt, Matthias Wojtynek ... Karsten Weis
    Genetic, proteomic, and structural analyses provide insight into the role of Brl1 during nuclear pore complex biogenesis, suggesting a function in the fusion of outer and inner nuclear membranes.

    Interleukin-33 regulates the endoplasmic reticulum stress of human myometrium via an influx of calcium during initiation of labor

    Li Chen, Zhenzhen Song ... Guoying Zhang
    IL-33 plays an important role in the initiation of labor by leading to stress of the ER via an influx of calcium ions in human uterine smooth muscle cells.
