Conserved degronome features governing quality control associated proteolysis
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
How interesting! A peptide screen to identify degrons with E3 ubiquitin ligase specificity in yeast followed by extraction of conserved properties identifies transmembrane domain containing peptides as likely degrons.

Integrating bulk and single cell RNA-seq refines transcriptomic profiles of specific C. elegans neurons
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
Recognizing the utility of not using <strong>exclusively</strong> cutting edge methods for everything, this important study combines bulk RNAseq (high sensitivity due to capturing more low expression and noncoding RNAs) and single cell RNAseq (high specificity) for a more comprehensive transcriptomic picture.

Bio-hybrid micro-swimmers propelled by flagella isolated from C. reinhardtii†
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
This is wild! Chlamydomonas flagella were isolated, demembranated, attached to polystyrene beads and reactivated to reconstitute flagellar movement. This yields some interesting insights through experimentation and simulation: Increased calcium concentration affects flagellar waveform and trajectory of bead movement and surprisingly, larger beads have increased rather than decreased velocity.

ARP2/3 complex associates with peroxisomes to participate in pexophagy in plants
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
Interesting role for ARP2/3 complex in peroxisome autophagy in plants!

Rapid Rerouting of Myosin Traffic at the T Cell Immunological Synapse
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
This polarity of actin networks and myosin traffic is interesting in light of the parallels between cilium biogenesis and the immune synapse function.

Structural basis of actin filament assembly and aging
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
A 2.2 angstrom resolution structures of muscle actin filaments in ATP, ADP-Pi and ADP states. Many new insights here about the surprising stability of ADP actin, mechanism of ATP hydrolysis, cofilin binding and more.

Genome-wide functional analysis reveals key roles for kinesins in the mammalian and mosquito stages of the malaria parasite life cycle
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
Truly exquisite characterization of kinesins in the malaria parasite. Check out the spectacular expansion microscopy images in figure 7A!

The molecular organization of flat and curved caveolae indicates bendable structural units at the plasma membrane
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
This is a beautiful characterization of caveolae. In addition to platinum replica EM of these plasma membrane invaginations in various cell types, this work includes molecular identification of proteins associated with caveolae of different curvatures by STED-CLEM (very high-resolution correlative light electron microscopy).

Early Endosome Capture Proteomics and its Application to Amyloid Precursor Protein Intramembrane Processing by β and γ-Secretases
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
Whoa! Successful ID of early endosomal cargoes via pull-down of an early endosomal marker followed by proteomics.

Systematic analysis of cilia characteristics and Hedgehog signaling in five immortal cell lines
This article's authorsAnnotation by Prachee Avasthi Recommended Reading
I love this kind of study that challenges our assumptions of what cells and models we should use. This is an important comparative characterization of cilium-based hedgehog signaling across a variety of cultured cell types.
