Causal role for sleep-dependent reactivation of learning-activated sensory ensembles for fear memory consolidation

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Learning-activated engram neurons play a critical role in memory recall but the role of these neurons in offline memory consolidation is unclear. The authors show that sleep-associated reactivation of learning-activated sensory neurons is necessary for ...

GCAF(TMEM251) regulates lysosome biogenesis by activating the mannose-6-phosphate pathway

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Lysosomal biogenesis errors often result in diseases including mucolipidosis. Here Zhang and Yang et al. identify TMEM251/GCAF as a mannose-6-phosphate modification regulator that is necessary for correct lysosomal targeting, and classify Mucolipidosis ...

Whole body regeneration and developmental competition in two botryllid ascidians

open access: yesEvoDevo, 2021
Background Botryllid ascidians are a group of marine invertebrate chordates that are colonial and grow by repeated rounds of asexual reproduction to form a colony of individual bodies, called zooids, linked by a common vascular network.

Enhanced germline stem cell longevity in Drosophila diapause

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Drosophila enter adult reproductive diapause in low temperatures and short day, halting ovarian development yet preserving fertility. Here the authors show that ovarian arrest in diapause is distinct from other stress responses and that despite DNA ...

Cell surface-localized CsgF condensate is a gatekeeper in bacterial curli subunit secretion

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Curli are functional amyloids present on the outer membrane of E. coli. CsgF is required for the proper assembly of curli. Here, we found that the CsgF phase separates in vitro and that the ability of CsgF variants to phase-separate is tightly correlated

Misregulation of Nucleoporins 98 and 96 leads to defects in protein synthesis that promote hallmarks of tumorigenesis

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2022
Nucleoporin 98KD (Nup98) is a promiscuous translocation partner in hematological malignancies. Most disease models of Nup98 translocations involve ectopic expression of the fusion protein under study, leaving the endogenous Nup98 loci unperturbed ...

GIGANTEA recruits the UBP12 and UBP13 deubiquitylases to regulate accumulation of the ZTL photoreceptor complex

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
The daily accumulation of the ZEITLUPE (ZTL) photoreceptor/E3 ubiquitin ligase relies on a light-dependent interaction with GIGANTEA (GI). Here the authors show that GI recruits two deubiquitylases to help stabilize the ZTL-GI complex during the day and ...

Lithium-sensing riboswitch classes regulate expression of bacterial cation transporter genes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Lithium is rare in Earth’s crust compared to the biologically relevant alkali metal cations sodium and potassium but can accumulate to toxic levels in some environments.

Norrin-induced Frizzled4 endocytosis and endo-lysosomal trafficking control retinal angiogenesis and barrier function

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Multiple mechanisms regulate Wnt/ß-catenin signalling. Zhanget al. describe a novel regulatory pathway and show that the activator of canonical Wnt signalling, Norrin, triggers endocytosis of its receptor Frizzled4 by promoting Frizzled4 ubiquitination.

Sugar sensation and mechanosensation in the egg-laying preference shift of Drosophila suzukii

open access: yeseLife, 2022
The agricultural pest Drosophila suzukii differs from most other Drosophila species in that it lays eggs in ripe, rather than overripe, fruit. Previously, we showed that changes in bitter taste sensation accompanied this adaptation (Dweck et al., 2021 ...
