Subunits of the Drosophila actin-capping protein heterodimer regulate each other at multiple levels.
The actin-Capping Protein heterodimer, composed of the α and β subunits, is a master F-actin regulator. In addition to its role in many cellular processes, Capping Protein acts as a main tumor suppressor module in Drosophila and in humans, in part, by ...

Footprints of Optimal Protein Assembly Strategies in the Operonic Structure of Prokaryotes
In this work, we investigate optimality principles behind synthesis strategies for protein complexes using a dynamic optimization approach. We show that the cellular capacity of protein synthesis has a strong influence on optimal synthesis strategies ...

USP16 counteracts mono-ubiquitination of RPS27a and promotes maturation of the 40S ribosomal subunit
Establishment of translational competence represents a decisive cytoplasmic step in the biogenesis of 40S ribosomal subunits. This involves final 18S rRNA processing and release of residual biogenesis factors, including the protein kinase RIOK1.
