Banp is a transcription activator of cell cycle genes like cenpt, ncapg, and wrnip1 to prevent genotoxic stress during rapid cell division and its repercussions on development and disease.
Septin7 is described as a novel component of skeletal muscle cytoskeleton with essential roles in muscle development and the proper organization of the myofilaments and the mitochondrial network while its absence leeds to reduced force and skeletal deformities.

To maintain the filtration barrier, slit diaphragms are cleansed by rapid cycles of raft-mediated endocytosis, while dynamin-dependent endocytosis prevents lateral diffusion of slit diaphragm protein.
Transferrin receptor 1-mediated iron uptake plays a pivotal role in osteoclast energy metabolism and cytoskeleton and regulates bone remodeling in female mice.
The active small G protein, Arl15-GTP, interacts with the MH2 domain of Smad4 and positively regulates the TGFß family signaling pathway by promoting the assembly of the Smad-complex.

Organ and vessel-type-specific differences in endothelial cell barrier composition and properties uncover the distinct importance of the major tight junction protein Claudin5 in restricting agonist-induced leakage.
A critical analysis of recent single-cell transcriptomic studies of Drosophila blood cells confirms the extreme plasticity of the major phagocyte class, identifies a new class of blood cell, and suggests relationships to blood cells in other insects.
