Export of secretory cargoes from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) requires COPII proteins, which were first identified for their ability to coat small vesicles that bud from the ER. Recent data indicate that COPII proteins can also organize into a collar at the necks of tubules, as well as phase-separate into liquid-like condensates. Thus, COPII assemblies seem to be tailored to accommodate variations in the size and quantities of cargo secreted.

The Munc13/UNC-13 family protein Ync13 is essential for septum integrity and cytokinesis in fission yeast. To further explore the mechanism of Ync13 functions, spontaneous suppressors of mutants, which can suppress the colony-formation defects and lysis phenotype of mutant cells, are isolated and characterized. One of the suppressor mutants, -, shows defects in the cytokinetic contractile ring constriction, septation, and daughter-cell separation, similar to mutant.

This study investigates an L-type lectin, NdLTL1, derived from Neocaridina denticulata sinensis, emphasizing its role in immune defense through carbohydrate binding and bacterial agglutination. Bioinformatics analysis identified 179 lectin sequences, leading to subsequent investigations into the structure and function of NdLTL1. The open reading frame (ORF) of NdLTL1 spans 966 bp and encodes a protein consisting of 321 amino acids (36.

Promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein forms the scaffold for PML nuclear bodies (PML NB) that reorganize into Lipid-Associated PML Structures (LAPS) under fatty acid stress. We determined how the fatty acid oleate alters the interactome of PMLI or PMLII by expressing fusions with the ascorbate peroxidase APEX2 in U2OS cells. The resultant interactome included ESCRT and COPII transport protein nodes.

Article Synopsis
- Type I IFNs play a crucial role in the effectiveness of radiotherapy (RT), but tumor cells have developed mechanisms to inhibit their production, which is not fully understood.
- A study using CRISPR screening identified hemeoxygenase 1 (HO-1) as a key regulator that disrupts the STING pathway and impairs the production of IFN-I during RT.
- Targeting HO-1 could improve the efficacy of RT by enhancing immune response, as high levels of HO-1 were linked to worse patient outcomes post-RT in various tumors.
Methods for Detecting Phosphorylated Proteins and Observing Intracellular Localization During Mitosis.

This protocol describes the detection of phosphorylated proteins within cells and the identification of their intracellular localization, with a particular focus on mitotic cells. While the detection of phosphorylated proteins can be achieved using radioactive labeling with Pi, this method presents experimental challenges due to the requirement for radioisotopes. Alternatively, detection using phosphorylation-specific antibodies is a potent method; however, it necessitates the identification of phosphorylation sites and further requires the generation of antibodies targeting these sites, making it effective only for thoroughly analyzed phosphorylations.
