Thompson, Stevenson et al @BristolUni show that two cis-Golgi golgins, GMAP210 & Golgin-160, have distinct roles in maintaining #Golgi organization & that both are required to support the efficient secretion, assembly, and modification of ECM proteins

The Tu lab show that a polymorphism in the Mkt1 gene underlies complex genetic phenotypes among strains of budding yeast. Mkt1 interacts w/ a #StressGranule protein Pbp1 to regulate expression of mitochondrial proteins, TORC1 signaling & autophagy in yeast

Narozna et al. uncover a high-frequency, chromosome 12-specific mis-segregation error in iPSCs. Eroded 12p arms lead to bridging & micronucleation, enabling widespread trisomy 12. A slight growth advantage allows trisomic cells to persist & dominate

Geng, Verhey et al find that KIF1C forms condensates where the exposed #kinesin motor domains entangle nearby #microtubules, causing them to bend & break in a process dependent on motor processivity, cluster properties, cytoplasmic viscosity, & MT anchors

Zheng et al. @SUSTechSZ reveal that during starvation, SOD1, linked to #ALS, is transported into #lysosomes through #autophagy and the receptor protein TP53INP1. Within lysosomes, SOD1 regulates ROS levels and safeguards lysosomal activity and integrity.
