SEC62 and TMX4 control asymmetric autophagy of the nuclear envelope upon LINC complex disassembly

The paper identifies SEC62 and TMX4 as regulators of asymmetric autophagy of the nuclear envelope during LINC complex disassembly in response to ER homeostatic changes.

Proteomics identifies substrates and a novel component in hSnd2-dependent ER protein targeting

The paper identifies substrates and a novel component, hSnd3, in the hSnd2-dependent ER protein targeting pathway through proteomic analysis.

Bimodal Endocytic Probe for Three-Dimensional Correlative Light and Electron Microscopy

This paper introduces fBSA-Au, a bimodal endocytic tracer for 2D and 3D CLEM, enabling accurate registration of fluorescence to EM data with sub-200 nm precision.

Structure of the Human Signal Peptidase Complex Reveals the Determinants for Signal Peptide Cleavage

The paper determines the atomic structures of human signal peptidase complex paralogs and identifies how their architecture enables specific recognition and cleavage of signal peptides.

An economic dilemma between weapon systems may explain an arachno-atypical venom in wasp spiders (Argiope bruennichi)

This study analyzes the venom of wasp spiders, finding an atypical composition with novel toxins, and proposes that venom simplicity evolved to resolve an economic dilemma between hunting strategies.

Proteomics identifies signal peptide features determining the substrate specificity in human Sec62/Sec63-dependent ER protein import
