    A pulse-chasable reporter processing assay for mammalian autophagic flux with HaloTag

    Willa Wen-You Yim, Hayashi Yamamoto, Noboru Mizushima
    HaloTag becomes resistant to lysosomal proteolysis upon ligand binding, enabling us to measure various types of autophagic flux easily and precisely by using HaloTag-containing reporters for processing assays.

    Ubiquitination drives COPI priming and Golgi SNARE localization

    Swapneeta S Date, Peng Xu ... Todd R Graham
    The ability of COPI to bind polyubiquitin is a key determinant for SNARE incorporation into intracellular vesicles and for maintenance of a functional Golgi complex.

    Distinct roles for two Caenorhabditis elegans acid-sensing ion channels in an ultradian clock

    Eva Kaulich, Trae Carroll ... Denise S Walker
    Two acid-sensing members of the degenerin/epithelial sodium channel family play distinct roles in controlling different aspects of rhythmic proton and calcium oscillations in the nematode intestine.

    Modular, cascade-like transcriptional program of regeneration in Stentor

    Pranidhi Sood, Athena Lin ... Wallace F Marshall
    Regeneration of single Stentor coeruleus cells is accompanied by a program of gene expression that can be decomposed into distinct modules, showing a cascade-like organization, and involving genes with conserved function in development and cell cycle control.

    Full spectrum flow cytometry reveals mesenchymal heterogeneity in first trimester placentae and phenotypic convergence in culture, providing insight into the origins of placental mesenchymal stromal cells

    Anna Leabourn Boss, Tanvi Damani ... Anna ES Brooks
    Full spectrum flow cytometry reveals a high degree of placental mesenchymal cell heterogeneity, which is lost with culture, highlighting the importance of detailed ex vivo phenotyping to optimise the use of these cells in downstream applications.

    Three-dimensional structure of kinetochore-fibers in human mitotic spindles

    Robert Kiewisz, Gunar Fabig ... Thomas Müller-Reichert
    Comprehensive 3D electron tomography reconstructions of metaphase spindles in human tissue culture cells reveal that kinetochore-fibers broaden as they extend polewards, forming semi-direct connections to the pole, where they preferentially interact with the spindle network.
