Septin proteins evolved from ancestral GTPases and co-assemble into hetero-oligomers and cytoskeletal filaments. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, five septins comprise two species of hetero-octamers, Cdc11/Shs1–Cdc12–Cdc3–Cdc10–Cdc10–Cdc3–Cdc12–Cdc11/Shs1 ...

7-Keto-Cholesterol and Cholestan-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta-Triol Induce Eryptosis through Distinct Pathways Leading to NADPH Oxidase and Nitric Oxide Synthase Activation [PDF]
BACKGROUND/AIMS: We showed that patho-physiological concentrations of either 7-keto-cholesterol (7-KC), or cholestane-3beta, 5alpha, 6beta-triol (TRIOL) caused the eryptotic death of human red blood cells (RBC), strictly dependent on the early production

Post‐Translational Modifications in Cilia and Ciliopathies
This review synthesizes current understanding of post‐translational modifications (PTMs) in ciliary proteins and emphasizes their roles in ciliary formation, homeostasis, and signaling. This review also discusses the implication of PTM dysregulation in ciliopathies and explores therapeutic strategies targeting PTM‐modifying enzymes.

Characterization of ROP GTPase-activated Arabidopsis receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCK class VI_A) [PDF]
Plants have to respond and adapt to a variety of continuously changing environmental factors in order to establish an appropriate developmental strategy to ensure survival. There are ample data showing that protein phosphorylation/dephosphorylation plays

GAP activity, but not subcellular targeting, is required for Arabidopsis RanGAP cellular and developmental functions [PDF]
The Ran GTPase activating protein (RanGAP) is important to Ran signaling involved in nucleocytoplasmic transport, spindle organization, and postmitotic nuclear assembly.

In this study, a novel mechanism is unveiled by which ADD1, acting as a molecular switch, coordinates actin branch dynamics and the transport of endocytic viruses and cargoes. Phosphorylation of ADD1 at Ser726 reduces actin branch density, enhancing endosome fusion and attachment to microtubules.

MxB is an interferon-induced restriction factor of human herpesviruses
MxB is an interferon-induced GTPase that inhibits HIV replication. Here, Crameri et al. show that MxB restricts replication of herpesviruses by inhibiting delivery of incoming viral DNA into the nucleus, and this antiviral activity depends on MxB’s ...

Spatiotemporal Regulation of STING Activity by Linear Ubiquitination Governs Antiviral Immunity
This study uncovers a spatiotemporal regulation of STING activity by linear ubiquitination in antiviral immunity. At the early stage of the infection, LUBAC promotes STING linear ubiquitination to drive its trafficking from the ER to the Golgi apparatus for activation.
