P440Targeting subcellular GRK2 localization [PDF]
GRK2 is a kinase involved in the regulation of G protein coupled receptor signaling and in particular phosphorylates beta adrenergic receptors at plasma membrane leading to desensitization. In animal and human models of heart failure, its increased level and activity are associated with a worse prognosis.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Molecular Control of the Amount, Subcellular Location and Activity State of Translation Elongation Factor 2 (eEF-2) in Neurons Experiencing Stress [PDF]
Eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF-2) is an important regulator of the protein translation machinery wherein it controls the movement of the ribosome along the mRNA.

TRPC1: Subcellular Localization?
Berbey et al. (1) recently reported that overexpressed TRPC1-YFP fusion protein is targeted to the sarcoplasmic reticulum of adult skeletal muscle fibers and operates as a calcium leak channel. This observation is in accordance with previous reports showing that the movement of TRPC1 to the plasma membrane is dependent on co-expression with TRPC4 or ...

This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Structural biology of ferritin nanocages
Ferritin is a conserved iron‐storage protein that sequesters iron as a ferric mineral core within a nanocage, protecting cells from oxidative damage and maintaining iron homeostasis. This review discusses ferritin biology, structure, and function, and highlights recent cryo‐EM studies revealing mechanisms of ferritinophagy, cellular iron uptake, and ...

Mechanical Fractionation of Cultured Neuronal Cells into Cell Body and Neurite Fractions
Many cells contain spatially defined subcellular regions that perform specialized tasks enabled by localized proteins. The subcellular distribution of these localized proteins is often facilitated by the subcellular localization of the RNA molecules that
