“By identifying & promoting good science, treating authors with decency and respect, and ensuring quality of peer review, editors nurture the reputation and quality of journals.” Read the editorial by our sister journal LifeScienceAlliance's timisstuck: hubs.la/Q03nz3Tn0



Claudia Pachinger, Alexander Dammermann et al. (Max Perutz Labs Vienna) present a model for centriolar satellites not as transport modules but as sites of translation specifically of centrosomal and ciliary proteins. hubs.ly/Q03nCM4H0




Excited to present first publication from the Joshi lab, now in Journal of Cell Biology. Here, we show that phosphatidic acid regulates Pex30 distribution at ER subdomains for lipid droplet biogenesis by binding to dysferlin domain. rupress.org/jcb/article/22…



House, Amit Joshi et al. show that Pex30 dysferlin domain binds PA through its two hydrophobic regions adjacent to beta sheets, & propose that PA, a precursor for neutral lipids, recruits Pex30 at ER subdomains that plays a critical role in LD biogenesis hubs.la/Q03nY5xL0



Ghosh, Prasad et al. IISER Kolkata elucidate the role of ecdysone signaling in orchestrating the removal of nurse cells by transforming the epithelial follicle cells to a phagocytic fate during late #Drosophila #oogenesis. hubs.la/Q03pvtf90 #Development #CellDeath

Train your epithelial cells to become a monster to clean excess Germline cells known as Nurse cell Morphogenesis Lab_IISERK


Ruoxi Wang & Eric Baehrecke discuss the conserved role of Atg9 in #lysosome repair in #Celegans and human cells, in the light of studies by Peng et al in JCB (hubs.la/Q03qy6650) and De Tito et al. in Developmental Cell (hubs.la/Q03qycqG0): hubs.la/Q03qy9qS0


Watanabe, Moriwaki, Matsuda et al. Science Tokyo (Institute of Science Tokyo) combine in silico molecular modeling with cell-free experimental analyses of DJ-1 mutants & present an evidence-based mechanism for DJ-1–mediated cPGA hydrolysis & its significance in #Parkinsons disease hubs.la/Q03qLSHM0



A study from the #KapoorLab in Journal of Cell Biology provides a model for how different enzymes unfold proteins and remove tags, solving a longstanding mystery about how the two interact. #RockefellerScience rockefeller.edu/news/37824-new…
