Nice paper from Kota @saitolab.bsky.social! Balanced phosphorylation of TANGO1 and Sec16A keep ER exit sites stable and functional.
Do cells maintain this dynamically to keep secretory machinery primed and responsive to changing cargo loads or environmental signals?

Leucine aminopeptidase LyLAP enables lysosomal degradation of membrane proteins
Breakdown of every transmembrane protein trafficked to lysosomes requires proteolysis of their hydrophobic helical transmembrane domains. Combining lysosomal proteomics with functional genomic dataset...

The pathways of secretory cargo export at the endoplasmic reticulum
Nature Communications - The author presents an overview of the complex challenge of protein export from the Endoplasmic Reticulum, and discusses how cells may deploy novel pathways utilizing...
A terrific perspective from Vivek Malhotra @naturecomms.bsky.social on the fundamental importance of pathways and mechanisms by which cells secrete proteins, ensuring their delivery in the correct quantities and at the appropriate times.
Interesting section on unanswered questions.

We've been studying mechanisms of resilience that protect lysosomes from damage and wrote a review on the topic. We consider lysosomal stress and damage on a spectrum. Please help me share as this is my first post π and I don't have many followers! π Open Access: www.embopress.org/doi/full/10....
