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 ...

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.
