The ins and outs of protein phosphorylation
Dissecting the interrelationships among components of the molecular signaling pathways involved in the control of key physiological processes such as cell growth, differentiation, survival and development is a timely issue in biology. The activation of these pathways is generally triggered at the plasma membrane by specific agonists acting through their cognate receptors. The activated receptor...

Cellular self-eating promotes pancreatitis T o survive tough times, cells sometimes resort to a form of self-cannibalism called autophagy. But as Hashimoto et al. reveal, autophagy can have a down side, destroying the pancreas by prematurely activating a digestive enzyme. In autophagy, a vesicle swallows a portion of cytoplasm and ferries it to the lysosome for digestion. The process is often b...
متن کاملProtein transport: The nonclassical ins and outs
Recent evidence that a herpes virus protein lacking a classical secretory signal sequence can spread between cells in culture draws attention to a class of proteins that are transported into and out of cells by unconventional means.

Virus takes the actin express V iruses typically hitchhike around the cytoplasm on microtubules. Ohkawa et al. reveal that one type of virus can travel within the cell using actin fi laments. Once baculoviruses break into a cell, they need a lift to the nucleus so their genetic material can be copied. However, these viruses don’t require microtubules for the journey. Ohkawa et al. investigated ...
متن کاملIns and Outs of E2Fs
Precise control of the mitotic cell cycle is a critical feature of eukaryotic life. In humans, mutations in cell cycle regulatory genes lead to the uncontrolled cell proliferation and tumor formation associated with the most dreaded of all diseases, cancer. E2F transcription factors are key components of an elaborate mechanism of cell cycle control in higher eukaryotes. For example, the promote...
