Distinct intramolecular interactions regulate autoinhibition of vinculin binding in αT-catenin and αE-catenin

Jonathon A. Heier, Sabine Pokutta, Ian W. Dale, Sun Kyung Kim, Andrew P. Hinck, William Weis, Adam Kwiatkowski

Summary: The study reveals that alpha T-catenin has similar binding characteristics to alpha E-catenin but with differences in affinity and conformation when binding to vinculin. The N-terminus of alpha T-catenin is crucial in maintaining M-region autoinhibition and recruiting vinculin to cell-cell contacts.

Interpreting the Evolutionary Echoes of a Protein Complex Essential for Inner-Ear Mechanosensation

Collin R. Nisler, Yoshie Narui, Emily Scheib, Deepanshu Choudhary, Jacob D. Bowman, Harsha Mandayam Bharathi, Vincent J. Lynch, Marcos Sotomayor

Summary: The complex inner ear of modern vertebrates has evolved over 500 million years, resulting in diverse inner-ear adaptations. Cadherin-23 and protocadherin-15 are essential molecules for hearing in vertebrates, acting as the focal point of force transmission when converting sound waves into electrical signals. This study characterizes the evolution of the interaction between these proteins, showing how sequence changes affect their biophysical properties, and how variations in interaction strength and dynamics exist among vertebrate lineages. The findings also suggest that the biophysical properties of the complex constrain its evolution, providing a possible explanation for the increased presence of deafness-causing mutants in cadherin-23 compared to protocadherin-15.

Bidirectional regulation of desmosome hyperadhesion by keratin isotypes and desmosomal components

Fanny Buchau, Franziska Vielmuth, Jens Waschke, Thomas M. Magin

Summary: Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that mediate cohesion and communication in tissues exposed to mechanical strain. The expression of K17 prevents the formation of stable, hyperadhesive desmosomes, while overexpression of Dsg3 or DPII enhances the formation of hyperadhesive desmosomes.

Ktistakis, Franco Locatelli, Francesca Nazio, Francesco Cecconi

Summary: The study reveals the crucial role of COPII vesicle-related protein TFG in autophagy induction, affecting ULK1 puncta number and localization, isolation membrane formation, and correct dynamics of LC3B and ATG proteins association for proper omegasome and autophagosome formation. The interaction between TFG and ATG8 protein LC3C through a canonical LIR motif is essential for TFG's activity in autophagy, favoring LC3C-ULK1 binding. Overall, TFG is identified as a molecular scaffold linking the early secretion pathway to autophagy.

Electron microscopy reveals that phospholipase C and Ca2' signaling regulate keratin filament uncoupling from desmosomes in Pemphigus

Desalegn T. Egu, Thomas Schmitt, Anna M. Sigmund, Jens Waschke

Summary: Pemphigus vulgaris is a severe autoimmune blistering skin disease caused by autoantibodies against desmosomal cadherins. This study used transmission electron microscopy to investigate the role of PLC and Ca2+ signaling in the pathogenesis of PV. The findings suggest that PLC and Ca2+ signaling are important for regulating desmosome ultrastructure and keratin filament insertion in pemphigus.

NCF4 dependent intracellular reactive oxygen species regulate plasma cell formation

Chang He, Huqiao Luo, Ana Coelho, Meng Liu, Qijing Li, Jing Xu, Alexander Kra, Stephen Malin, Zuyi Yuan, Rikard Holmdahl

Summary: Defective production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) by NCF4 variants leads to enhanced production of autoantibodies and severe arthritis. The NCF4 mutation does not affect extracellular ROS responses, but decreases intracellular responses in B cells. NCF4 regulates terminal differentiation of B cells to plasma cells through intracellular ROS.

Glutathione limits RUNX2 oxidation and degradation to regulate bone formation

Guoli Hu, Yilin Yu, Deepika Sharma, Shondra M. Pruett-Miller, Yinshi Ren, Guo-Fang Zhang, Courtney M. Karner

Summary: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) negatively impact osteoblast differentiation and bone formation by inhibiting the stability of the RUNX2 protein, which is a molecular sensor of the osteoblast REDOX environment. The synthesis of glutathione (GSH) is essential in neutralizing ROS and establishing a proosteogenic REDOX environment. Antioxidant therapy can stabilize RUNX2 and improve bone development in certain bone disorders.

Infrared radiation feedback does not regulate star cluster formation

Shyam H. Menon, Christoph Federrath, Mark R. Krumholz

Summary: We present 3D radiation-hydrodynamical simulations of star cluster formation and evolution in self-gravitating clouds that are optically thick to infrared photons. Using a novel RHD algorithm - VETTAM, we investigate the impact of IR radiation pressure on the star formation efficiency and the potential for driving dusty winds. Our results suggest that the commonly adopted simplifications of IR dust opacities lead to overestimation of the radiation force and that realistic opacities that consider the microphysics of dust show a very mild effect of IR radiation pressure on star formation.

RIPK1 and TRADD Regulate TNF-Induced Signaling and Ripoptosome Formation

Maria Feoktistova, Roman Makarov, Amir S. Yazdi, Diana Panayotova-Dimitrova

Summary: TNF-induced cell death is regulated by RIPK1 and TRADD, with RIPK1 playing a critical role in apoptosis and necroptosis in the absence of IAPs, while TRADD functions as a negative regulator of NIK stabilization and ripoptosome formation. Additionally, MAPK signaling activation does not require RIPK1 and TRADD, and partial repression of NF-kappa B activation in these cells does not sensitize them to TNF due to the lack of NIK stabilization. RIPK1 is essential for preventing TRADD ubiquitination and degradation during TNF signaling, highlighting the intricate balance between cell death and survival.

Global minimization via classical tunneling assisted by collective force field formation

Francesco Caravelli, Forrest C. Sheldon, Fabio L. Traversa

Summary: Simple elements interacting in networks can lead to complex emergent behaviors, such as synchronization and phase transitions. A model inspired by memristors demonstrates how weak and strong driving can result in movement in an effective potential or escapes from local minima respectively, ultimately leading to a collective and nonperturbative effect called a Lyapunov force.

Regulation of Cell Polarity and Tissue Architecture in Epidermal Aging and Cancer

Oana D. Persa, Janis Koester, Carien M. Niessen

Summary: The mammalian skin plays a crucial role in protecting the organism and facilitating communication with the environment. However, aging and external influences like UVR can compromise skin function and regeneration, potentially leading to skin cancer. More research is needed to understand how aging impacts tissue architecture and cell dynamics in skin homeostasis and regeneration, and whether these changes contribute to the development of skin cancer.

Striking parallels between dorsoventral patterning in Drosophila and Gryllus reveal a complex evolutionary history behind a model gene regulatory network

Matthias Pechmann, Nathan James Kenny, Laura Pott, Peter Heger, Yen-Ta Chen, Thomas Buchta, Orhan Ozuak, Jeremy Lynch, Siegfried Roth

Summary: Dorsoventral pattering in insects relies on Toll and BMP signaling, with variations in the contributions of both pathways across different insect lineages. The cricket Gryllus bimaculatus shows similarity to Drosophila in Toll's direct patterning role, as well as in polarizing BMP signaling. These findings suggest either convergent evolution of Toll's function in Gryllus and Drosophila, or early evolution of a Drosophila-like system that underwent extensive modifications in multiple lineages.
